Yamaha Tenere 700 | First look review from KNOX

Check out the all new Yamaha Tenere 700 for 2019!
Taking 10 minutes off the Knox stand at this years Motorcycle Live show, we had to check out another hotly anticipated bike to launch for 2019, the Yamaha Tenere 700. As well as being hotly anticipated, the Tenere 700 is also longly anticipated and we have seen this at a fair few rounds of shows now… Customers and fans have salivated, gone dry mouthed, and then salivated again for this new model!
Hopefully, the wait is worthwhile, as the Tenere 700 looks like a proper beast capable of tackling the rough stuff with ease and also has great road going foundations with the highly acclaimed MT07 engine pumping out 75hp. The Tenere is one of a number of important launches in the adventure sector, where customers have been demanding lighter machines that are more capable off road and command a lower price point such as the KTM 790 adventure R we look at last week, and BMW’s 850gs.
Word on the street (or un-named Yamaha representative loitering on their stand) is that the Tenere 700 will go on retail next year at under £9,000, a price point offering serious value for money in comparison with competitors of the model. Availability is looking to be well into 2019.
Redtread will be offering the Tenere 700 experience which they will run from Nerja in Spain. We went out to RedTread earlier in the year riding Wr250f machines and it was an experience I will never forget! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oNrTXYFrQc
Feel free to get in touch with RedTread to get more information, but this could be a great way to test if you like the machine before buying it. https://www.redtread.com/tenere/. The trip looks to be 70/30 road/trail split, so could give a great insight of how you could use the bike.
Hope you enjoyed this one, please like comment and subscribe to the channel. And don’t forget to check out the range of Knox products available on https://www.planet-knox.com.
