no im a big brain poopy pant
Next up: so you want a ktm 1290 super adventure
Yammi wtf why didn’t you compare it to the Africa twin
@Yammie Noob what about the triumph tigers?
Some extra points for the T7:
40 000 km valve clearance checks?! That is the longest I know of any bikes, and keeps the maintance cost down.
Most reliable engine on the market.
Best looking.
That’s nuts, reminds me of the valve clearance check on their WR250, it’s one of the longest out of the other dual sport competitors
Can’t go wrong with a Yamaha
Neglected klrs and dr650s would like a word about reliability
What's wrong with checking the valves every once in awhile? Not so hard.
@@timjohnson1199 On most bikes it takes hours. I'll rather be riding.
"RyanF9 likes it", giving thumb up in your vid
Yam, you forgot to mention Pol Tarrés's crazy video with the T7. That video alone sold more Teneres than any comercial
And he did it all on his day off.
link please?
@@thekaizer666 pol tarres - the seeker
The Seeker,or Terrible 7?
“Ryan F9 likes it more”
I’m sold. This is my next bike.
Ryan F9 sold me on ordering a new one. At my skill level all I should really justify is a cheap Chinese knock off 200...
Same
Yammie respects RyanF9
I respect RyanF9
I respect Yammie
The transitive law at play
T7 is probably the smartest choice, but we motorcyclist are an emotional bunch and we choose our bikes with our hearts.
Sooooo... we still choose the T700?
@@maj0mi23 Speak for yourself. I want an inline 4 with knobbies.
Jeez, I was just thinking about getting it and I was wondering if you had a video on it. I guess I don't have to wait anymore hehehe
5:35 - thanks Yammie for referencing our dearly beloved fellow Canadian Ryan Fortnine!
Woa... And a second Ryan Fortnine reference at the end. You’re da man Mr. Yammie!
WHATS THIS GIVE US THE MV AGUSTA CONTENT. ILL NEVER GET ENOUGH OF IT.
Had a 600DR for 2 years (98ish) with kickstart, after a while you can start it like a breeze and it never fails to do so even without a battery.......the 600XT was the same......with some electrical problems aka shorts and open circuits. None the less these old bikes were tons of fun, easy on maintenance, easy on the wallet, easy to ride and cheap to insure being a noob rider.
Hey yammie, I’m new to the channel and love your stuff
Nice video I appreciate the history lesson, some I knew but did learn a few things. I have watched videos out of Australia about the virtues of the 660 Tenere. Riders of adventure bikes have a great choice depending on where your adventure lies. These days my adventures are on tarmac so I have a V-Strom 650 and love it for long road trips. My son has a 1090 Adventure R where 70% of his riding is off-pavement. In fact he riding the South California BDR as I type this reply. It is the bike he rides on long road trips with me. If he wants to ride single tracks then he uses one of his 2 KTM dirt bikes.
Can I give a thumbs up for the classical background music. Class move.
So you want a Honda Africa Twin....
Yes....but cry in 175cm.
Please do an episode on the Kawasaki KLR 650. Specifically focussing on the Generation one. Such an absolutely legendary Bike for the price. I’ve been camping here in the mountains for about three weeks on the back of mine.
honest reviews man
Ok I've watched six of your videos now and liked them all.
Time to subscribe
I just bought one! Still in the crate at the dealership. Like Christmas, only for adults
Good luck getting one. Pulled my deposit from the yammie dealership after it was 3 months past when they said they’d get one.
I'm father time... I don't care if it's next year or five years from now, there's a Tenere 700 in my future. I didn't get a 2000 SV650 that I had my eyes on until 2005, but I had gobs of fun with that thing, more-so than had I bought it new, because I got it for a steal and rode it accordingly.
Ryan at Fortnine has entered the chat
Yet somehow Ryan never mentions this idiot.
@@pconrz why should he? He is at another ball park, actually riding the bike
@@erindi23 The point goes sailing over your head. Another unforced error by a remedial reader.
4:40 I used to have that bike in that color scheme before the engine seized with a cracked balance shaft :( Still miss that bike to this day.
I have 83 xt 550 and it can be ''challenging' to start at times. Like 20 miles from nowhere.
Yeah, I agree with all that but, it comes down to what you can spend and how you treat the damn thing. My NC700X was cheap, gets to some nasty places, construction zones and is a great commuter. Lots of ground clearance, low end grunt and different tires. Plenty of scrapes and wounds on it but it's there to serve me and not the other way around.
The engine of the T7 was also given and awarded the most dependable and well built engine. Give me dependability any day. Especially when your out in the woods!
Would love your take on the Africa Twin! Did I miss that vid?
That 5 valve single was available in the former east German MuZ lineup that tried over here back in the late 90s
Oh so the MZ Skorpion and Baghira used the 660 Yamaha engine. Interesting.
Too bad they are out of business again. Their bikes with 1000cc twins looked pretty cool when I was a teenager. And their 125 models where super popular in East Germany when I got my A1 license.
Bro, you forgot the Africa twin, which is probably the closest and most direct tenere competitor
Africa twin is a 1084 cc and about 100 lbs more, and even the base model costs 4000$ more. Really hoping honda comes out with something in between the 500x and Africa twin though!!
@@derekschulz7813 Welp, they did. Transalp 750 xD
I saw a Tenere in the dealership I was in. And I was like Damn, that's nice. haha
The big BMW R1200 or R1250 is actually great off road due to the low CG. Even better than the smaller BMW...
No mention of the Tiger? And you call yourself a Triumph simp...
Love the holla to Ryan F9. Hats off.
19" front tire isn't gonna be "just as good" when the adventure HAS TO GO through a road troughrr than you thought.
I really think the categorization of off road bikes needs an overhaul.
Street bikes have sport, sport tourer, super sport, cruisers, ect.
With off road bike it's dirt, dual sport, adv.
There are so many sub categories in there.
Utility, trail, enduro, motocross, rally.
That’s the thing about bikes. It’s hard to find that sweet spot depending on what you’re interested in.
Personally, a new niche I’d love created would be a two-stroke, 500 cc, two-cylinder, ADV that’s fuel injected.
@@StimmedPenguin Sometimes it's fun to dream.
StimmedPenguin KTM are the only ones doing two-stroke that’s injected, but idk if they’re thumpers or if they have any two cylinders
Vsucc Yeah I was looking at the 300 XC-W TPI for a street legal SuperMoto setup one day, but yeah, nothing like a two-cylinder anywhere to be found because 2 strokes are largely extinct.
I just think you’d find the perfect power to weight ratio paired with a electronics control package that’ll keep your wheels spinning the right amount on dirt and upright on wet road selectable on demand if so desired as a package. I always love having budget options on models.
Not to mention the lack of oil filter/valve maintenance with a larger ADV sized gas tank and luggage options.
It’s a dream, unless a whole bunch of free time and money come my way then I’d modify a KTM frame myself and engineer something to work.
@@StimmedPenguin You'd probably have to build your own custom if you want a multi-cylinder two stroke. Engine probably wouldn't be that hard to source though. Plenty of sleds and marine engines that would fit the bill of liquid cooled.
Just tested one at the dealership this weekend. It's a forgiving bike with a bit of height that gives a good overview of traffic without being heavy/big. It's a good compromise between the ability to commute in traffic and some off road capability.
"some" lol, this bike rips off-road
@@joshm9163 Fine, but i'm not that good at it yet so with me riding it's some.
First time Papa yam not praising for triumph's TIGER
Awhh, even my dear wee strom got a mention. Thanks for that!
3:35 it is easy to kick start a big thumper, if you know what you're doing 😂
Next so you want : hypermotard!!!
Get my Tenere in a week or so. Exciting times.
Brah, where is that Tiger in this comparison? Also a "Ton of Fun" come on man thats Royal Enfield's catchphrase for the twins. Besides my rants good video mate.
Hey Papa Yams I know they don't even make them anymore but could you do the ttr 250 as a daily commuter/dual sport
now that the svartpilen is on sale, i'm quite tempted. the t7 sounds awesome, but it's more than i wanna spend on an occasionally-fucking-around-offroad bike. and i'd want enough power to comfortably get to trails on the freeway, so i doubt a dirt bike/dual sport is where it's at for that purpose either.
If 70hp is not enough for you, you want a street bike. Unless you have pro-level offroad skills, you cannot possibly use more than that. Low end torque, however, makes everyone in the dirt happy.
I am a spite sized shrek look a like. So I slapped street tires on a vstrom 1000 and treat it like a sport bike. Love it.😁
Klr 650 always brings you back home
YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS Papa is talking about my love, ADV’s
You make a good argument for the dual sport. For me, I live in the city, have a car as my daily, and no trailer. So I need that bike that’ll get me out of the city for a good hour before I can get my tires sandy. I’m leaning more towards the Tenere. This is coming from someone that’s had the TW200, FZ07,and a Goldwing. As soon as I sold the dual sport I missed riding on the road, seeing a fun trail and going exploring. But that little T-Dub sucked on the hwy, so frickin sketch haha!
I’ve got a TW and have been riding them for a couple years. Such a fun and nimble little bike. Just rode it down some really sketchy trails here in Colorado and it performed effortlessly, albeit absolutely gutless at the 9500-13,000’ levels. I want to go up to a tenere and get into the ADV scene but still be able to hit some slightly technical trails…you think this is a possibility at slightly above novice levels? I’m not afraid to drop my new bike, nor take chances and scuff em up. That’s just all part of the learning experience.
If you've already been riding for a few months and getting the fundamental skills built up, then I'd say you're probably ready to move up. Just remember with the new bike to get comfortable on it first, practice on trails you're familiar with, and then start to push yourself out of your comfort zone a little bit more and a little bit more. Have fun, be safe. It sounds like the T700 is a bike that can handle being dropped and beat up a little bit :)
@@fonz-ys6xu thanks man. I’ve got about 800 miles on the tdub, 95% dirt. Of that, I’d say 35% is very technical riding. Stuff is never want to take a midsize adv through but it sure was fun on a smaller bike! Cheers.
Sounds like you've had some awesome adventures!
Happily just got myself one. I was sold on my first ride and I'm coming from a DR-Z400 SM. Looking for a bit of an all rounderthat was safer to pass on highways and this is definitely it for me, and I've been on that 800GS as my mom has one. Mom prefers the T7 by far after I found this rare gem, and the BMW just feels clunky but fast compared to the T7, even though the weight is not that far off
You the best channel on RUclips
Sick
Been eyeing this bike for a while now, but alas I'm not ready to let go of my trusty 'ol KTM 950 Adventure S
I have a few friends who wouldn't trade their 950/990 for anything.
Still no love for the RE Himalayan. Yes stateside needs mods for interstate travel but still with mods would be cheaper but even a novice can use offroad.
I left sportbikes for adv and haven’t looked back although I will get another sport bike
This is the only bike I'd consider as a replacement for my DR650.
Do it! Do it! Do it!
Tip: you can get a transparent frosted sticker to go over your speedometer when you are filming so the cops won't want to talk to you when they see your speed on RUclips.
Have the cops ever wanted to talk to a RUclipsr after viewing a video of them speeding? Hopefully they have better things to do.
Nate Scherer yeah. Technically it is binding evidence, but when it’s filmed from the riders point of view, there’s not really proof that it was anyone specific speeding. Also, it would have to be someone from the proper jurisdiction to actually prosecute
@@ntdscherer There was a fellow named Ghost Rider on RUclips years ago and I'm pretty sure the cops busted him from the videos he posted. He was doing a hell of a lot more than just speeding by a few MPH though....
Yammie love from India!!❤️✨
Until something with similar specs comes out my dr650 with some power mods gives me likely mid 40s hp and is only 366lbs. I wouldn't want to pick up a 450lb bike anymore than 4 times a day unless I was weight training for it haha. Here's for hoping for a tenere 450 and a crf450l rally with long maintenance intervals.
Great bike the tenere
It will do everything I'll ever needs with out all the crappy modes that no one needs .
Ducati has 3 inches less rear travel, not even remotely the same offroad capability. What 4k in mods would you do to the t700??
yes i am quite early, but its 12:37 midnight for my country.
Do anyone of you guys have expereince with it? Is it suitable for a 175 tall (5'7), 85 kg man?
Also, would you take it on a day , or many days long trips, given the narrow seat ? Cheers
Out of curiosity .. exactly how does that crow taste? .. Harley actually has a run-away seller on their hands with the Pan Am (much to my surprise too)
Make a video about how to properly ride with a passenger
Older Tiger 800 with a few mods is a reasonable way to go
Yammie during the whole video was like go watch f9 video
next up: so you want a aprilia tuonoV4 factory
I noticed the specs on the Desert Sled too. It is definitely something I'll check out. It is quite a bit dearer than the T7, but it is definitely quite cool. - A good second hand one might be the go.
I've seen a lot of new leftovers for under $9k around here, especially in the cities.
@@mmaaddict78 Guessing you are in the states. I'm in NZ. They're around $20K new here (NZ $) and have seen them as low as $16K second hand, low kms. Around $10,600-US. Rode the Triumph ScramblerXC last week - pretty disappointing - typically shit ride-by-wire throttle response and very weird ergonomics. Kind of a shame. The up-side is I don't have to find $22k to buy one now. T7, Duc, and Africa Twin still to check out.
Congrats on your correct pronunciation of Tenere. Some people botch it badly.
Yamaha WR 155 is street legal here in the Philippines 🤷♀️
The waffling seems endless before you get to the T7 :-(
Yes! Yamaha T7 is the first thing I will get after I become a dentist
i was looking at a tenere 700 but i bought a mt09 im still wondering if i made the right decision
Watching this video in 2022 knowing that the Harley Pan America has done amazing so far is pretty funny. No one would have predicted it, but they made a great bike.
More adv and dual sports
Thank you for discussing the vstrom instead of the kawasaki who's name I cannot spell without the help of google
I love my T7!
I’m somewhere between a T7 and a weeStrom 650. I like the looks of the T7 more, but the price and comfort of Vstrom.
Which is more fun, Desert Sled or the T7?!
Thinking of getting the Tenere 700 and hit the trails in Romania.
Or I could get the Tracer 900 GT and just stay on the road.
Since I only go 2 weeks / year in Romania I'm kinda in the middle if I should get the Tenere over the Tracer.
I'm selling my Tracer 900 GT after 2.5 years of ownership to get a T700. The Tenere is way more versatile
I didn't realise I was hard to kick-start a thumper and I ride a ttr600
thats why i bought the 390 ADV, i didnt had enough money for the Tenere 700
Yes ! Yamaha
In your off road Yamaha bikes, you forgot to mention the Yamaha Tracer 900GT. Not an off road bike you say??? Well, someone used it to do the MABDR. Look it up. "Somewhere on the MABDR" on Vimeo.
damn right I want a Tenere 700 XD
When i think yamaha i think of the old junker snowmobile i have that ran on a piston and a half for a year and it only complained a little bit not nearly enough to bother tearing the engine down ...
Dude thank you for taking the time to make the vids.
I am 6’5 and 250 lbs, would the Tenere 700 work for me?
A grom would work
I took a grom this morning. I feel better but it hurt coming out.
You missed the Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro
DO ANOTHER motovlog with the BUSSSAAAAA
I'm sold!!! TW is the bike for me!!!
My 09 wr250r is coming on thursday :D
Jesus, when is enough enough lol. "It only makes 75hp..." 😂 Gravel roads + 75hp = insanity 🤣
YZ 450 makes like 55hp right, in a light race bike
I don't know about there in the US but in Canada Honda has one called the NC750X that looks like a fantastic bike, and in my opinion much better looking than any shown in the video, ... and at $9400.00 CDN which works out to $7,100.00 US. Not bad at all IMO.
I have an NC700X. Not the prettiest but it is, for the price, ( I paid $5.5k in '014) fantastic.
The photo at 4:04. This is what ALL DUAL SPORT bikes should be. They should make the DR650, XR650L, XL650, DRZ-400, KLR-650, into low tech, low cost, parallel twins. They don't need fancy gizmos, or fancy suspension. They just need a high revving, counterbalanced, 70 HP parallel twin, with an overdrive 6th gear. Then you have a legitimate cross country touring machine, for cheap. The single cylinder bikes don't like to be revved super high, and they also don't like to be revved super low either, they only do good at medium RPM's. A parallel twin can be lugged at extremely low RPM's, and can also run at extremely high RPM's, without complaining. And then, you also get 75% more horsepower. With modern engine technology, single cylinder bikes aren't necessary for weight or size. Nobody wants 38 horsepower and a single that feels like it's going to throw a rod at 75mph. A KLR single is heavier than a ZX-6R with a 4 cylinder.
I have a ktm 640. Has e start and a left side kicker little tricky to kick.
I looked at one of them with just the kick start. I wasn't keen on kick starting a 640 single. even less so with my left leg. Electric boot was a grand more
While more expensive. I'll probably step up to the Africa Twin. A good point to remember. If an "adventure" bike doesn't come with a skid plate, is it really meant to be an adventure bike?
What's the difference between an xt 250 and an xt 250t ? Idk I have no idea about classic bikes
Is the CRF450L a nice compromise between the WR250 and T7? More power than the WR and less weight than the T7. Also $4k less than the T7. 🤷♂️
Too late Yammie, the KTM Adventure 390 is the new "i don't own a bike but i would probably get a ADV bike for the adventures i'll definitely have with it" bike.
And whoever makes the first "deslanted" peg mounts will sell exactly the same amount of them as bikes sold, because adventure...
still happy with the KLR for now, don't get the carb hate
Yes
