Overview

When you're riding the Ténéré 700, you are riding a legend. It’s built tough. From the adjustable suspension to the carefully considered riding position and electronic aids you can switch off when required, it’s a motorcycle capable of taking on any terrain you throw at it.

Lighter than the competition and with an engine tuned for torque, this go-everywhere, do-anything motorcycle embodies the very spirit of life on two-wheels and the sense of adventure within us all.

Key Features

CP2 Engine with YCC-T

Yamaha’s critically acclaimed 690cc parallel-twin engine adopts YCC-T (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle) which in turn facilitates switchable throttle maps on the CP2 platform. The introduction of YCC-T gives riders the option of two selectable maps with different characteristics, Sport and Explorer, with the latter offering a softer power delivery.

Adventure design

Inspired by Yamaha’s rally raid bikes past and present, the Ténéré 700 sports an all-adventure look combined with ergonomics developed to be more effective for both road and off-road riding. The fuel tank is forward, with great consideration taken to balance size with optimal ergonomics. The top of the 16-litre tank sits lower down than the one found on the previous generation model and contribute to a more balanced weight distribution and better all-round handling.

Large footrests

Another important touchpoint of the Ténéré 700 now includes large footrests as standard. First seen on the Ténéré 700 World Raid, the wide footpegs really help the rider make steering inputs through the footpegs when riding on loose surfaces.

Adjustable USD forks

The front forks are fully adjustable with 15mm of preload easily accessed through the adjuster on top of each fork leg. Compression and rebound damping characteristics can be fine-tuned by turning screws at either end of the forks. These race-developed inverted forks are designed to take on even the most hostile terrain, with flex-resistant 43mm tubes and 210mm of front wheel travel contributing to an impressive 240mm of ground clearance.

Premium dashboard

The Ténéré 700 sports a premium 6.3in full-colour TFT dashboard with outstanding style and functionality. Vertically stacked in a design inspired by rally raid roadbooks, the screen offers simple smartphone connectivity to unlock a host of features including the seamless integration of phone calls and messages, as well as music and turn-by-turn navigation through the MyRide app. These features can be controlled using the left-hand switchgear, meaning the rider is able to take control without having to stop or even take their hands off the handlebars.

Intuitive switchgear

Complementing the TFT dash are intuitive switchgear cubes, which offer more functionality than those found on the previous generation Ténéré 700 and make scrolling through the many functions easy and intuitive. Ergonomically designed for easy operation, flexible printed circuits are used to allow each switch to handle more functions through the use of a five-direction joystick.

Switchable ABS and TCS

Giving the Ténéré 700 rider ultimate control in an off-road environment, the traction control and ABS systems may be switched off to hand over manual control on loose surfaces. The TCS has two settings, on and off, and can be deselected via the menu on the TFT dashboard, while a large button at the side of the dash can be used to control the ABS settings.

Lightweight double cradle frame

Constructed from high tensile steel pipe, the strength of the main frame material allows for thinner materials to be used – keeping the overall weight of the machine as low as possible. The frame’s downpipes work alongside the aluminium engine guard to protect the sump from severe damage in the event of heavy impact, while the integrated subframe facilitates full luggage options from the Genuine Yamaha Accessories range to be fitted.

Rally-bred face

The headlamp design features four individual LED light units stacked in an aluminium structure, in the style of Yamaha’s contemporary rally racers, with the ‘Y’ shaped mount giving a distinctively look. Colour-matched handguards not only confirm the Ténéré 700’s off-road credentials but have the practical benefits of giving the rider protection from the elements.

Rally developed rear suspension

Optimised rear suspension features plush action and an easy access remote adjuster. Designed to offer a smooth and stable ride on road and off the beaten track, the set-up pairs a progressive rear linkage design with an adjustable rear shock absorber,. Developed as a result of feedback from Yamaha’s rally raid programme, this set-up increases suspension stroke while maintaining the same 200mm wheel travel as the previous generation Ténéré 700.

MyRide app connectivity

Yamaha’s free MyRide app gives Ténéré 700 riders the chance to get more enjoyment and information out of every ride. Available for iOS and Android devices, it tracks and stores every route covered, and enables users to create their own story and add pictures which can be shared on social media. MyRide also allows users to review all riding statistics including total distance, elevation, top speed, average speed, acceleration and lean angle to compare with fellow riders. For Ténéré 700, MyRide is also the app that enables connectivity so riders can view incoming call and message notifications on the dashboard, as well as the turn-by-turn navigation.
