    Thanks for the overview.
    -I wish we got anything beyond the base model in the US
    -I also wonder if the 2025 changes will be brought to the US
    -It's frustrating they gave it ride by wire but no cruise control. They also didn't fix the exhaust hanger, or give it tubeless wheels.

      Indeed, the US priorities is a bit wierd at Yamaha. And cruise control would have been so easy to add.
      I am very careful with adding tech since once you get used to it, you don't want to go back. I have Popeye muscles now from 83k without cruise control 😂

They didnt changed the more important stuff, like the exhaust hanger, reduce weight, fix frame problem, top heavy, etc. so nah - not my bike.

    For those who watched your 80,000 km review, you might remember these quotes: ‘I’m keeping this bike,’ ‘I’m not selling it because no one would pay its real value,’ and ‘I’ll reach 200,000 km.’ Correct me if I’m wrong here-
    I’m not against you upgrading, and I’m definitely not hating on it. I just think the change might not be a worthy upgrade. I’ve been following your channel because I’m interested in how you’ve developed the bike and learned to fix and maintain it.

    One of the really attractive aspects of the T7 was its Simplicity, its lack of electronics.
    The T7 moves in the direction of just another SUV type ADV bike?
    ABS proves more of a annoyance than all else. I don't need TC. And, CC? Really? On the dirt trails?
    What should have been improved on is the exhaust damper and sub frame. The sub frame should be detachable as a bolt on unit. And the damper perhaps be more integrated like the YZ 450.

    On the other hand the the menu's and selcting what to to on my 24 is soooo clunky that i dont have any high hopes that Yamaha will do it better than a stand alone system with a tablet.

And I will need time to prefer the updated esthetics (if I ever will). In any case, it for sure will be interesting to follow Yamaha's further adaptations of the Tenere! 😃

    I had a T7, the seat was wide and hindered my reach to the ground. The top heaviness was what turned me off, fuelled up it was HEAVY.
    The motor is the highlight, runs so smooth, very tractable.
    Why cant Yamaha build a bike to compete with the 690?
    Thats what i own now, same HP, much less weight, better suspension etc.
    Lately been riding it on most of the same single track that i take my 300, i was blown away, it responds to HARD riding so well.

      If that is true, I absolutely made the right move by getting a new World Rally for a great price (promotion in Germany) a few weeks ago. The World Rally/World Raid is the real deal and so fantastically simple (dongle included). On top the World Rally is so freaking beautiful (paint job rocks). I absolutely love this bike. Mark my words...These bikes (WR) will be desired in a few years from now. I am happy that you are excited. I am happy for you. Personally I don't need and do not fancy the 2025 mods except the comeback of this great light blue. The current T7 is the modern XRV 750 Africa Twin made by Yamaha. That's why I love the current T7.
      Discontinuing the WR/WRally would be a shame and a big mistake. Guys in Australia for example absolutely love the WR because of its stability and more importantly because of its range. 16 litres are not enough in remote areas.

    I was in the market for the World Raid and my dealer told me to wait for the 2025 models before I decide. Now Yamaha threw the wrench into my thought process why I was looking at the WR.
    Lower tank, not sure how much it will be different to current base T7, but that was one of the reasons for WR.
    Better suspension than standard, for my weight I would probably never have to upgrade suspension, now Rally is the same as WR currently.
    WR has more fuel capacity, but with the changes to base model and mostly Rally version, I might have to think harder what I want out of my T7.
    Seems currently the WR was not changed at the moment. Might have to consider now WR vs Rally really hard :)
    Thanks for the video

    Honestly I am not a fan of the aesthetic changes. The previous Tenere looks sexy... this angular look is much less so. And I am not a fan of the headlights at all... as I am a fan of curves. I also don't want the electronic control features: traction control, and riding modes I don't want, as they are just something more to go wrong with on a long journey, so the older model is more for me. Part of the problem here for us in North America, is we still haven't gotten the World Raid, or Extreme models imported yet. We are still getting the "regular" model as our only model. And this "upgrade" is a downgrade for some of us. I would buy a WR or the Extreme model you get in europe over this new model any day.

    The only sensible upgrade wrt my WR was to get rid of the small stupid wheel to select screen etc. In Tunisia the sand stuck it so not in principle I could no longer even touch the abs… 😮.
    Wheel changed under warranty but still a weak point. Aftermarket: I changed rims to be tubeless, got a high mount exhaust, and mounted abs button from a czech company besides better skid plate, mirrors, hanguards and stronger springs in suspensions. Going to keep it as it is now for a long time… 😅

    To be honest, I was looking forward to the new T7 but also expected a bit more. Personally, I thought that the displacement would increase to around 900 cc and that in addition to the traction control there would also be cruise control. I mean, we are talking about the new Yamaha 2025 which should also be more in tune with the times. Slightly disappointing.

    Tubeless tires do not belong in an off road oriented motorbike. Nor does cruise control. If you want those things, then you're looking at a wrong kind of bike.
    I think the only thing "missing" from the T7 was some kind of underseat tank design to bring the weight a bit lower. And a re-design on the exhaust hanger. That's it. Even ride by wire is a downgrade imo. Another electrical thing that CAN go wrong.

      if you dont want it it doesnt matter others wont. these bikes are multi purpose, if you only ride offroad good for you, others are taking round the world trips, commuting long distances etc. ask them, if they would never want cruise control. the price of it is negligible. how many electric throttles have you heard of going bad on motorcycles?
      Why did they install the electric throttle without cruise control? To please people like you? Even the 2025 KTM 390 adventure comes with cruise control.
      I had my Tuareg 660 as only means of transportation for 8 months. Is Tuareg an offroad oriented bike enough for you? Rode 200 miles straight highway with cruise control on and just chilling, to a RALLY. Competed in a offroad rally and rode the bike back 200 miles. Why wouldn't I not want cruise control for that? Did 8.5k thousand miles in this season, over half of it offroad and I still want cruise control.
