- Yamaha Tenere 700 Question and Answer, Episode One!
Have a question on the Tenere 700 or any of my riding gear or camera set up?
Leave a comment and I will answer it as best I can.
The word "Umm" was removed at least 200 times in the making of this video.
I'm in Canada and have had my deposit on one for a while. They're telling us we'll get them in May. I've sat on one but that's it. I've watched just about every video. I can't wait to have it in my stable. Glad to hear more positive comments.
Your experience with your Tenere review sounds extremely similar to how it went for me and my KLR review. Lots of views, lots of anger about click bait, but really helped my channel grow and continues to do so even 4 years later. Can't wait to get a Tenere, yours sounds amazing!!!
I think there was a couple of people annoyed at the click bait side of it, but it's just the way RUclips works now!
Also, when you eventually get a Tenere, you will bloody love it! We don't have the KLR in the UK and I kind of wish we did!
@@RegularJon NO ITS NOT... click bate is, titles that dont represent what viewers are expecting... liking your channel ... though, you are a talker
Coming from r1200Gsa and testing aprilia, husqvarna, ktm and Honda I can definitely confirm this bike (for me) is the best in many areas where other bikes are not even close, yet they charge up words of 15k.. Engine mapping is one of the best I have ever tried.
Keep up the work you are doing great 👍
Thank you!
The only thing that makes me wait for this bike is the engine, I have the mt07 and the engine just made me fall in love with it. Just enough power for everything. lets hope yamaha release this bike in america soon.
I don't think it's enough power really.
Good job mate
Awesome bike!
America here watching and waiting for it to come out
i am in Australia and owner of t7 love it ,nice on dry dirt fire trails i subbed
Thanks for that. Enjoying your insight into the Tenere. After all the endless teasing I put my deposit down recently here on the West Coast of Canada. Early summer I'm told. I'd love to see a vid on the rapidly expanding accessories catalogues and any choices you have made. Please, somebody make a replacement gas cap. Also, of course, some off road action would be appreciated.
Will do! Hopefully going to get some off road riding done before the year is out!
This bike is on my shortlist for an upgrade from the wonderful CB500X, subscribed from Ontario Canada, thanks for making videos. Of course there's this bike as well as the Tiger XCX 800/850 or a BMW F800/850 GSA.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Ride safe and enjoy.
USA State of Idaho...Still waiting for this bike! All of them are pre sold everywhere! I can't get one as of today.
I remember the feeling! I hope you get one soon!
You’re fairly local to me, I will keep an eye out for you. Scotland is also on my Radar, hoping to do the NC500, next summer.
I am one of your recent subscribers. You are lucky to have the bike. In Canada, T7 will be available in 2020. Can’t wait to get my hands in it. Any plans for a heated grip and cruise control modification. I totally agree with you about the tubeless tires. For safety reasons, this should be mandatory on every bike. I would hate to get a flat in an area with a healthy bears population.... We appreciate your videos👍🏽
I hadn't even considered that side of the tubeless / tubed argument! All we have to worry about here in the UK is the rain!
I will see what santa brings me this year with regards to heated grips, I wont be doing a cruise control mod myself though.
Thank you for your support!
Steve at Loughborough motorbike school pointed me in your direction I am glad he did I will be buying a new Tenere in the next few weeks. I will be moving to Derby soon so may see you out and a bout.
Great stuff! I hope you enjoy your Tenere when you get it! 😁
You´re the wind, Jon! That´s why it´ always windy when you´re out riding :D Glad to hear you´re enjoying the Yamaha Tenere 700! We just ordered two of them for our own :D
Ahhh of course! 😂. Great news, I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoy mine! 😁😁
@@RegularJon Thanks! We can´t wait to get them and get out there riding :D Spring can´t hardly come quick enough!
Big Jon :-) I orderd last week the beast... In four weeks i'll be on it. I had a wonderful tiger 800 but when i tried the tenere' i was completly in love with this bike. My friends that rides gs 1200 said I'm crazy because it's only an enduro bike... But for me the fun factor is the most important. Those kind of bikes are boring (the tiger too apart the wonderful triple engine....). Ciao. Gianluca - Milano
My new tenere makes that winning noise too
Hi great review! Even if i plan no off roading, so will be all on tarmac, do you think its still a good choice? Thanks
you have a new sub here and I'm seriously thinking about getting this bike for my first bike here in Canada.
you should start with a smaller bike, and practice your riding skills. a honda CRF250, WR250R, DRz400 probably at the biggest. Trust me, you can learn your skills so much more competently on a smaller bike, it will save your life for when you jump up to a larger one. that honda CRF250L took me 3,000mi on and off road on a single trip, its much more capable than people think.
I'm in one of those countries without the T7 :( Subbed and liked! Yamaha #1
Canada too...lol Boooooo
India too 😭
Get yourself out in the mud it’s great fun. I took my 790 green laning for my 1st ever time yesterday and yep it’s heavy to lift out of the mud 😂
You should try the Viking Pass, I’m still searching for lanes in Leicestershire so be interesting to see what you find!
I've been out the back of Melton Mowbray and there is a few out that way! Hopefully videos coming soon!
Hi Jon, just subbed as I’ve been following the introduction of this bike. Your videos are good.
How do you rate the main beam and dip on the bike? It is said to be much brighter as they are LED,s, but specific info would be great. Also how bad is it with fork dive under braking shortening the lighting distance? Cheers Mark
The lights are absolutely ridiculous, the brightest thing I've ever seen! Mine came adjusted way too high up and the main bean lights up the sky but I've had no real issues, the forks don't dive that much to be honest!
Great stuff...as an owner of the previous Tenere, and someone on the verge of ordering the new Tenere!,...it's good to hear your thoughts. I've had a test ride and loved it..., but the 660 is a good bike and it would be a big decision. Have you got the heated grips....? Cheers, Steve
Mmmmm well if you go for one I promise you won't be disappointed! And not yet, I will see what santa brings 😁
Bit drier over Thetford way if you fancy off road day out. I'll be out a couple of times over Christmas weather permitting 😉
If I recover from this man flu then I may be interested!
What do you think about the Ktm 390 adventure? And the ktm 790 adventure R? Which of the three bikes do you think is more appropriate for 50/50 road and trails? Thank you and all the best.
Ive been loving your videos so far :) Been waiting for this bike for years too. I have a big Question. It was a disappointment for me to see such a small tank of gas when the specs for the concept bike were shown, an extra gallon would have been nice and also the seat was a disappointment. Do you think I can carry my gf around no problem on this bike? planning a south american trip, one day hopefully.
I find the fuel range fine on mine! 200 miles is enough to make anybody want to get off!
And yes, wind the preload right up on the rear shock and you and your good lady will be just fine on your travels!
@@RegularJon hehe thanks for the fast reply. That tenere is amazing. BTW I have gone more than 200 miles on a 125 dual sport and I just don't wanna get off :D.
Gear and camera setup would be much appreciated for future videos.... Toodle Pip Squire...😁👍📽️👊✌️🍻🏍️
I will add it to my list!
give us lot a shout whenever you pop up to scotland and we'll join you for a road trip and a pint!
500$ Deposit done for canadian market. Wait for mine here in the Québec province!!! Thanks again!!!
You will love it! What colour have you chosen?
Hi Jon have you been on the motorway for a good few miles with it and if so is the screen good enough or would it need the after market bigger one...cheers👍🏻
Hi mate, yes I have used it on the motorway, it is a little noisy but not bad, a taller screen would help taller riders but I am 6ft something for reference
I noticed that noise too, only in fifth gear, more noticeable on the over run. First time I’ve heard anyone else mention it. By the way, I’m in Shepshed!
Glad it's not just mine that does it!
Woo Midlands Gang 🤓
The T7 is just starting to filter through here in Australia now .... Pre ordered bikes are getting to their owners slowly ... I'm looking forward to taking one for a test ride, but at 17K AU
it isnt that cheap comparatively to the KTM 790 R seeing how bare bones it is relative to the KTM ....5K more for the KTM is a lot but worth it for what you get
Apples and oranges. I'm old fashioned and a Luddite, hence despise electronics, TC, rider aids, TFT screens etc etc. This bike is a modern replacement for the DR 650, XR 650, KLR 650. RTW bikes relatively light, simple, and easy to work on. If it was air cooled and had a carb..... best thing to come out of Japan and the dual sport scene in 20 - 25 years.
Great video, what is the device that attached to the left hand mirror?
I answer this question in one of the Q&A videos! It's a generic accessory holder / heated grip control perch
Ah cheers, that's your first video I've watched.
Could you link your camera setup please? I’ve got my gopro attached to the tank at the moment but the position isn’t great and the footage is a little vibey.
I will make a video on my camera set up soon! Links will be in that video!
I think the tank capacity would be smaller or the tank taller, if they had developed a included tank cap. And of course more expensive. I think it's no problem. I did a refuel on my test drive and just put the tank cap on the upper fork bridge. Biggest mistake would be a fall inside dirt 😂. So should I sell my really loved mt09 sp to get a tenere? Or should I wait to get it parallel for next winter season 😏🤔
Having made the transition from Tracer 900 to Tenere 700, I dont think you would regret it! Unless you are a speed demon and you use the MT09 to the fullest!
@@RegularJon I think you can't even use a 50hp bike on street to the limits😂, to much traffic and idiots out there. But changes are coming, nice triple engines will die and the Euro 5+ times aren't getting better for combustion engines. I don't wanna miss it too much, that's what I already did with my first mt09 😂. Well a tracer is pretty similar for touring, Sozia, luggage possibilities.. . I think that bike would I sell also if I had one. 🤔
hows the height for you and seat height when you're stopped at a light? Be good to know how tall you are. Love the bike
The bike is very tall however the seat isn't as high as you might expect, I am about 6 foot tall and I can flat foot the bike, Just about! The bike seems to squat a little with a rider on bringing the ride height down a little.
It’s all relative; 450lbs sounds super light compared to my Super Tenere! We can’t even preorder yet in the US.
Yes, you can.
Propelled couldn’t 3 weeks ago. Were you able to order one now?
As mostly road bike to replace transalp looking for your view cheers
100% do it!
Yamaha Tenere 700 reserve fuel 60 miles ( 100 Km) - of course if you are not hard on throttle.
Have you done the Scotland trip yet new to channel
Not yet, a whole year later and i've still not manged it!
Do you own Tenere 700?
I can't wait to test ride it here in US
Yes this is my own Tenere!
Nc500!!!!
Not until early summer in the USA.
Hang in there! It's worth it!
Not available in New Zealand yet either :(
Basilton next week👍
UK streets are so damn narrow. I'd hate to drive a car there.
Our cars are mostly small too! 🤣
What grade of fuel are you running?
The cheapest stuff out of the pump at Tesco 🙈
Hope your next shite is a hedgehog and it comes out backwards,only joking,come to the west of Scotland and see what biking country is all about.
I don't buy the whole "having a proper fuel cap would result in the bike being more expensive" , Yamaha is still charging a lot of money for a bike that is 2000s tech. If anything I think Yamaha profit more from this bike than any other bike in their range and more than their competition. It costs them peanuts to put this bike together compared to a Triumph Tiger 900 or KTM 790. It probably costs them more to put a YZ450F together and that sells for less and it gets an update every year. Good for Yamaha, but stop justifying ridiculous shortcuts for their own profits.
Uhmmmm
Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm
