This summer, American riders will have the chance to enjoy themselves while riding Yamaha’s new adventure bike, the Tenere 700. The two-wheeler, launched by the Japanese bike maker in 2019, has been confirmed for a U.S. arrival later this summer.
Starting the end of next month (June) Tenere would become physically available at local dealers, after already being available for order. The company expects the first shipment of the motorcycle to sell out rapidly, and more will head stateside later this year.
Selling for $9,999 on the U.S. market, the motorcycle will be available with two accessory packs.
The first is called Rally Pack and features a skid plate, main stand, engine guard, radiator protector, chain guide, mono-seat rack and tank pad. The second, Tour Pack, adds a main stand, engine guard, side case stays and a set of side cases with locks.
The Tenere 700 is powered by a 689cc engine linked to a six-speed transmission. The engine is a twin-cylinder derived from the MT-07.
With a narrowed body and with a slim fuel tank sitting on top of the frame (capable of holding 4.2 gallons of fuel), the bike seems to be easy to ride on both tarmac roads and dirt tracks. For off-road adventures, the Tenere 700 is equipped with dirt-ready spoked wheels sized 21-inch front and 18-inch rear, while stopping power is ensured by triple-disc brakes with selectable ABS.
The bike also comes with a LCD display that shows gear position, fuel level, two trip meters and estimated fuel range, as well as average and instant fuel consumption, among others.
“With a spirit of adventure embedded in their DNA, Yamaha Adventure bikes are rugged, tough and reliable. Each Ténéré model in the Adventure Touring segment opens up the possibilities of endless travel and enables riders to discover a feeling of utter freedom where the only limits exist within a rider’s imagination,” said Yamaha in a statement.
