The wt balance is the first thing I noticed. That balance really lends itself to agility especially when standing on the pegs. Here are my standout features, balance, ease of maintenance (easy to change oil, and air filter), fantastic motor, lack of electronics to break, comfort.

I have a good friend who has an Africa Twin. He tried to do the trans-America trail a couple of years ago. The friend he rode with had a spill and they weren’t able to stay on the trail as long as they had hoped. If I was going to do much adventure riding, this Tenere 700 is the one I would look at. It just seems so much more capable off-road than all of the bigger adventure bikes. Day trips, rather than coast to coast adventures seem more in line with what I’m able to do at this time.

That’s why I have DR650, not a lot of bells and whistles but affordable and I can do day adventures on it easily. I’m not into long distance adv riding at the moment but I see the appeal! If money want a concern this is probably the bike I would want. I picked up my DR used for under 4k

mike, i could trade my 2019 street glide even up for pan america special, including a free hd riding suit,helmet, and boots in the deal.but i think i'll miss my street glide to much. at 10 grand for the tenere, i think i'll keep the street glide, and have the best of both worlds. what do you think ?

Nice video thank you for the review. I love the looks and capabilities listed for this bike, however I feel like Yamaha should’ve added cruise control to this model. After all this bike is used for long distance riding on and off road. Any idea if this is something coming in the future?

I'm debating getting rid of the DR and buying a Tenere. Tough choices. Either get a Tenere or get a Softail or street Bob. Can only afford to do one...... what do u think?
@NewBikeMikeChannel2 жыл бұрын
I have not road the tenere but looks pretty sweet, Street Bob only got new paint so unless you love the Paint I would probably look at the Tenere. The Heritage did get some upgrades, you may want to wait till end of the month till everything is announced.
