2022 Yamaha Tenere 700 Rally Edition: RIDE THE LEGEND.

Introducing the new 2022 Yamaha Tenere 700 Rally Edition…

When the first Dakar Rally took place back in 1979 it gave the Yamaha XT a chance to prove itself in the world’s toughest race. XT riders won this legendary event in ’79 and ’80, and inspired the development of the original Ténéré in 1983 – Yamaha’s iconic adventure bike that changed the world of motorcycling.

40 years on, the Yamaha Ténéré 700 is capturing the imagination of a new generation of riders who want to discover what’s over the next horizon. And the exclusive Yamaha Ténéré 700 Rally Edition comes with heritage rally colours and a high standard specification.

Featuring white and red racing livery, speedblock graphics and gold rims, the Ténéré 700 Rally Edition pays tribute to the factory bikes raced in Dakar. With its premium components and pure Ténéré DNA, this is Yamaha’s ultimate middleweight adventure bike.

The original Ténéré helped to make Yamaha the most successful brand in the Dakar, with XT models taking 18 podiums in the first 6 editions of the world’s toughest race. The pure race-bred DNA that conquered the desert has been passed through the generations to the Yamaha Ténéré 700 Rally Edition. And it shows.

Serious capability with unrivalled endurance.

A specially developed one-piece Rally seat gives you a higher and more upright riding position that makes it easier to shift your body weight and stand up on the pegs in the dirt – and the Akrapovič muffler delivers a rich and throaty growl that amplifies the addictive big-torque feeling from the EU5 compliant CP2 engine.

Other premium components include a heavy duty 4 mm thick skid plate that gives extra frame and engine protection in tough terrain, as well as a radiator protector and laser cut chain guard – while LED flashers, knee grip pads and o road handlebar grips complete the Rally Edition’s high specification.
