Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha Tenere 700 World Raid 2025

If you want, you can also conquer tough off-road terrain with it. However, if you don't have to cover long distances, you will prefer the lightness of the standard T7. The World Raid's wide tank is noticeable in its ergonomics and handling. The soft suspension, on the other hand, copes well with tough off-road terrain and, thanks to the steering damper, the bike remains very stable even on fast-flowing dirt tracks. The complicated deactivation procedure for the ABS is annoying in the long run, and a simple "off" button would be nice. All in all, the World Raid lives up to its name, especially for world travellers, and is very well thought out in this respect with a wide range and plenty of off-road comfort.

Stable riding performance

Comfortable seat

Greatly dimensioned engine - does not overtax and is a lot of fun

Very robust overall impression

Very reliable

Very tough

strong traction

Suspension offers a wide range of use

well dimensioned suspension

very practical

The great price/performance ratio of the Tenere was somewhat lost in the form of the World Raid

When standing still, the wide fuel tank is particularly annoying on uphill sections

On the road, the front brake is a little too lax

Off-road, the rear brake is a little too weak

clutch and throttle control are now better on other bikes in this class

Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin 2025

The Honda CRF1100L Africa twin cylinder impresses with its high level of riding comfort and versatility. Thanks to the low seat height and a wide range of clean, but rather conservatively designed Advanced Rider Assistance Systems, it is ideal for road riders and off-road beginners. The proven, finely controllable engine and the cleanly responsive suspension offer a smooth riding experience. The long-distance comfort, including a low, integrated seating position, matches the good-natured character of the machine. The operating concept of the electronics could be more intuitive and requires familiarisation. The ergonomics for standing off-road and the chassis reserves for tougher off-road sections could be improved. The handguards are also not robust enough for intensive off-road use. Overall, however, the Africa twin cylinder is a well-balanced, comfortable touring machine that masters even light off-road terrain with ease.
