Why is the Yamaha Tenere 700 such a popular motorcycle?
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The Yamaha Tenere 700 has been with us since 2019 and has proved to be an incredibly popular 'adventure motorcycle. It has always been priced competitively, has excellent road and off-road manners and is a simple, no fuss, back to basics machine. There's not much to say that hasn't already been said, so in this video I thought I'd pose the question 'Why is the Tenere 700 so popular?' I'll try to answer that, but I also enlisted the help of some online creators who own one to share their thoughts;

I think the Tenere 700 has become a living legend in just a handfull of years. In just one single move it said "enough of all this electronic BS". Set the rider in focus, be rock solid and go for an adventure. And people loved it.
Lucia hit the nail on the head for me "no unnecessary electronics" personally I don't think all these electronics are needed. Like you said the rider is the traction control with the throttle and feedback. I think all these electronics are taking the fun and skill out of riding. That's just my opinion, great video

Thanks Marty and Lucia can ride the crap out of her World Raid!
The engine is very very reliable for remote areas that’s one thing I love about this bike and no high tech on the bike
I can't believe i am writing this comment and that in the end of January i am picking up mine. I sold my xmax (6 years owing - 61.190 km - zero problems) for this dream bike. Yamaha for life!
My husband rides a 2021 model and is very happy with it. Myself, I have, so to speak, the lower, more street-oriented version of it - the Tracer 700. Also a joy to ride. Both very versatile bikes. The Ténéré is a tad more like a tractor, pulls just through everything. Mine wants more rev, which I prefer. The T7 simply is a versatile do-it-all bike. Both bikes are almost technically identical (except my ABS cannot be switched off), we never missed rider modes or traction control. Or cruise control, for that matter. If I want that, I take the car. What we prefer with both of these bikes to the predecessors we owned: that you can easily get almost any kind of accessory you can think of. We both rode XT 600 E before, the pre-final models. These were almost done for, hardly anything you could add. So overall, really pleasant, no-fuss bikes.
I have had the Tenere World Raid for almost a year now, it is without doubt the best bike I have ever owned, it is great for touring, welsh fire roads and pretty much every road in France/Spain. I like the fact the standard screen creates no turbulance at motorway speeds, the suspension is absolutely perfect as standard, I really like the steering damper as it really helps me at slow speeds, the seat is comfortable, the only thing I don't like is the way the standard exhaust is attached to to the frame, I fitted a HPCorse raised exhaust which sorted the problem for me. Oh and I like that fact that it has no electronics other then ABS, exactly the same as my first bike (BMW) many years ago.

The format of polling some of your peers at the end for their opinion on the tenere was brilliant. I wish that more journalists would do this. It gave your opinions on the motorcycle a lot of credibility. Thanks for all that you do in the reviews as well, walking around the bike at the end showing the features is perfect.

Very well said. I clock 70000km on my 2022 tenere 700. Yet to do VC and the bike still rocks solid. Long distance, offroading, daily commute and NO UNECESSARY ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS!!!!! A 10000km trip coming this sept, cant wait to rock it out again....
The simplicity of the T7 has always been key for me. You can make it what you want and super reliable. This style of video is great. Thanks👍
One of the biggest selling points is the reliability. There is no doubt the bike just works. People have accumulated some serious miles on them and not a single issue has popped up, unlike basically every other mid-size bike on the market.
I have been using 2 drz 400 motorcycles just sold one of them and ordered a t7 . It will arrive in August! I can’t wait we have a pile of parts sitting in the shop for when I get the bike! Crash protection, heated grips, kaoko throttle lock, wrap around hand guards so on! I’m so excited for my bike to arrive! Love the simplicity of the t7. The least amount of technology the better
I have the WR version and it’s absolutely brilliant, one of those rare bikes that you feel totally connected with, power figures are misleading and absolutely bang on for intended use, no daft electronics, the more you push this bike the more it rewards you, you just need to grow a pair and attack ! Only downside is it’s heavy bike to pick up after a long day, and it’s such a good off road bike it can get lead you into trouble, but I like that Legend of a bike 👌

I have always liked the look of this bike. I agree The Africa Twin is the other really good-looking one. The upright dash on the T7 looks cool, and I like the windscreen. For a low-tech adventure bike it is perfect, apart from one thing: the tubed tyres. I have the equivalent scrambler in terms of low-tech [even more so] and stripped back. Another Yamaha: the SCR950. I love it, apart from the tubed tyres. Excellent review. I enjoyed the additional comments. Nick

I live in the U.S. and bought a 2023 T700. Our 2023 does not have the TFT screen 😟, but the simple electronics are loved. The bike handles well on freeways and loves off road adventures! Great bike!
The T7 is not perfect, but it is the closest thing to the perfect bike for me. The engine is torquey, can tractor from low revs and has excellent gear ratios for all types of offroad and comfortable on-road conditions. As noted by one of your guests, it is a great foundation to make it your own, with many after market parts available, and that allowed me to customise it to suit my needs.
Test road it and liked it a lot. But. She took one look at the seat, the height ,and said no thanks. They've put a big tank on it now too, matching my old 660. But the lower, bigger seat on the v strom, 20 litres tank and lower price swung it. Plus its tubeless. But if I didn't ride 2up, I'd have bought the Tenere. It's still my favourite. Ride safe and happy travels 👍
Great mini review Tony👍 Absolutely love my T7. One of the things that attracted me to it was its simplicity. It also has plenty of power, is fantastic off and on road and looks great too. Win, win, win 🏁

The T7 has honest integrity, you and the machine.
The Interceptor of the mid-weight adv bikes. Cheap to own, easy to maintain and tons of third party parts available to customise it to your liking
Good review, spiced up by alternative viewpoints. It's definitely a very appealing bike. Strong, reliable and versatile. I had a 600 Ténéré single in Tanzania in the eighties, and the modern, twin version looks even better. Electric start even. But an 875mm seat height is too much in my old age, so I will stick to my UJF litrebike, which is only 10kg heavier and with an 830mm seat height. The fit-looking young man happily admitted that he dropped his 700 frequently on account of its height and weight . . .
Nice review and discussion Tony..for me personally the T7 is my perfect do everything bike. 3 plus years into ownership, bike fitted with Dunlop Raid's, Kriega luggage and many more farkles i look forward to riding it as much as possible. Long journeys, round the 'grey' lanes of West Sussex and Hampshire, endless trips exploring the Emerald Isle i can't fault it. The engine is a peach...strong and super reliable without being dull. And it looks great in a Dakarish way!!. Especially parked up on the top of the Healy Pass...love it, a keeper for sure. Cheers Steve 💚

i love T7 !!! it's hard to trade it with somethin else ! cheers from Greece man !
The first part of the word is "motor" Part of the popularity is the CP2 motor, it is an absolute gem. The problem with the T7? The muffler hanger, easily bent, easily damaged. This should have been a sacrificial, replaceable part.
I had one, it's a brilliant bike. You can drive 190 km/h on the highway, no problem, no vibrations. Fun to drive. Had to sell it because I'm a 5 foot 7, it was too tall for me. I had no problem to sell it though, to a decent price.
The Yam T700 is popular I feel because is way cheaper the the BMW Line up, or KTMs is lighter and has less Tech. I currently run a Honda CRF300 Rally (mainly for its light weight) I have also added some rally raid upgrades
A top heavy bike, not so easy to pick up, not so great on extremely long highway rides and no cruse control. Other than that is is a solid motorcycle easy to work on easy to maintain and a solid reliable motorcycle with one of the best engines ever made. Not only that but it is a beautiful machine to look at. It's simple and I like that no matter how much technology bikes get this one will stand the test of time.
Nice little review Tony, you reinforce my regrets! I recently won a brand spanking World Raid in black, with a few extras. I decided that the seat hight was probably too high at 890mm for me, not sure I made the right move in taking the cash alternative. Looking at my Royal Enfield Meteor in the garage, Mmmm, maybe I should have taken the bike.

ridden one on the dirt but never owned one, reasons why I would buy one, cost, trail ability, simplicity not for its own sake just less stuff to go wrong, but the main reason proven reliability of this model and other Yams too. Reason I wont buy one I have short legs so too tall and top heavy compounding the issue. Yamaha have done a good job on it using a not ideal engine but have done nothing to mitigate its high C of G, a common complaint. Well done Yamaha for building a well designed, tested reliable bike, you with the orange shirts take notice design, test and prove before selling, dont just make it quick and hope the customers will keep taking it on the chin when it keeps failing. just spoke to the guys in my local bike cafe and a local on his new last year Norden has had his camshaft go, but KTM still saying there is no fault, their customer support is a joke.
T7 is a great bike cause it was a great price & can be modified alot.

It's the bike everyone wanted. A ground up design of an off-road capable bike with a reliable engine. Since no other Japanese manufacturer can design a bike which can compete, despite efforts from Honda and Suzuki. The Tenere 700 remains king. You simply can't get a bike like the Tenere 700 unless you're willing to shell out more money and even then, the Tenere is probably better looking, better sounding, and equally if not more capable limited only by rider skill.
If it only had tubeless wheels and electronic cruise control I'd be a buyer. Considered the Tuareg 660, but bought the V85TT in the end.

I have not ridden this bike, but have a question. You say it is a heavy bike, but it is within a few kilos of the other bikes you mentioned except the V-Strom. So if I am understanding what you are saying is that they are all the same weight in its class. Or are there any in that class, which are stupidly light? I have watched Adam Rieman remove a bunch of items and replace them with alternates where needed (e.g. exhaust pipe, tail tidy, etc.) and saved 14kgs.

@colin20cal

The reason everyone says about the weight is because it carries it all high up eg: the tank is very high up but also it has a very tall engine which sits high up in the frame. Basically the bike is top heavy, once you go off vertical the weight takes over very quickly. Have owned my T7 for nearly four years and love it. Heavily modified and definitely a keeper. I'm a shortie at 5' 7" (170cms) with a 30" inseam, I have the confidence offroad but not the ability, so the bike spends some of the time lying down taking a rest from me. 🤔🤣🤣🤣

Different tools for different riders. The GS still outsells the Tenere but the Yamaha is definitely making gains. Changes to the yamaha include more electronic options, not less. More refinement in things like shifting and ABS. I dont think there is a better middle weight adv out there and for pure hard off road the Tenere is better for the average rider. But then again, the average adv rider isnt doing hard enduro. Again, different tools for different riders.

Yes indeed, point in fact at the recent Arai Tour X5 launch, we had a choice of Tenere or Tuareg to ride.

Not that back to basics with all that abs options. (But compared to other new bikes)
The reason for the popularity in the US is .. dealership support, strong aftermarket so many accessories to customize the bike, Japanese pedigree, and price point, you can buy it new or used, ride it for years and sell the bike at a minimum loss compared to a less popular bike or something made China or exotics from Italy or Austria. $10k in $8-7000 k out and you can ride the bike for the equivalent of $100-150 dollars a month, many bikes fall off a cliff of depreciation.
