YAMAHA Super Tenere Worldcrosser (2018-Present) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2018, alongside the base model, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha XT 1200Z Super Tenere Worldcrosser, an adventure touring motorcycle packed with a set of goodies that beefed up and enhanced the performance of the stock model.

The 2018 Worldcrosser came with carbon fiber side panels and aluminum mesh protectors that gave the bike a unique appearance. Also, the plastic fork protectors were replaced by carbon fiber ones.

In addition, the bike was fitted with a set of stickers that pointed out its special package, letting riders know which one was the blessed model. Also, the fuel tank featured protection pads, increasing the grip while riding, standing, or seating.

As the bike was intended to run on rough terrain, the maker installed a shaft shield, a stronger skid plate, and a rear brake protector, all of which were made of anodized aluminum that enhanced durability.

The bike also had several optional features, including an Akrapovic exhaust system, fog lamps, a luggage system, engine guards, adjustable suspensions, heated grips, and a top case rack. These optional features were available as standard on the XT 1200ZE version.

In terms of power, the 2018 Yamaha XT 1200Z Super Tenere Worldcrosser had installed a 1,199cc four-stroke parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 112 hp at 7,250 rpm and 117 Nm (86 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.
