AIR-COOLED 223CC FOUR-STROKE

Confidence-inspiring handling and a rugged 223cc air-cooled, SOHC four-stroke producing predictable, broadband power make the TT-R230 a great choice for beginner and intermediate riders.

PLUSH SUSPENSION

36mm front fork with 240mm of wheel travel provides plush, confidence inspiring control over rough terrain. 295mm of ground clearance should be enough to deal with almost any trail.

6-SPEED GEARBOX

Smooth-shifting, six-speed transmission with heavy-duty clutch geared for maximum versatility and usable power delivery.

SUPERB STOPPING POWER

Front 220mm disc and 130mm rear drum brakes for powerful, confident stops. Full-size 21-inch front and 18-inch rear aluminium wheels keep unsprung weight down, while knobby tires provide motocross-spec grip.

LOW SEAT HEIGHT

A low seat height atop long-travel suspension and 295mm of ground clearance makes this a very capable trailbike suitable to a wide range of riders.

REMOTELY ADJUSTABLE REAR SHOCK

The Ténéré 700 is equipped with a rally-bred link-type rear suspension system that gives smooth and progressive action for maximum riding comfort and enhanced levels of control. Featuring a lightweight aluminium swingarm for low unsprung weight, this high specification rear end offers 200mm of travel which, like the front suspension system, is designed to be able to handle the most severe off road riding conditions as well as giving a comfortable ride on the road. Another significant feature is the remote adjuster that lets you fine tune the preload settings while you're on the go, making it quick and easy to dial in the shock to suit the riding conditions.

RALLY STYLE COCKPIT

Sitting on the Ténéré 700 with the rally-bred cockpit in front of you, you'll absorb the pure Dakar character of this new generation adventure bike and be inspired to get out there and explore. The compact rally screen and nose fairing give you excellent protection from the wind while maintaining the slim and lightweight character of the bike, and the competition type tapered handlebars give a relaxed riding position whether you're seated or standing.

FRONT AND REAR SPOKED WHEELS

Just like the high specification front and rear suspension, the spoked wheels clearly demonstrate that this bike is built for serious off road riding. With their ability to efficiently absorb the continuous impacts experienced when riding in rough terrain, these lightweight wheels work with the long travel suspension to give you optimum handling performance and control. Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tyres are fitted as original equipment, and because the Ténéré 700 features a competition type 21-inch front wheel/18-inch rear wheel combination, you have the possibility to fit a wide choice of tyres to suit your own requirements - ranging from a pure enduro pattern for predominantly off road use, through to dual sport pattern tyres for year round on/off road versatility.

SLIM LONG-RANGE FUEL TANK

Throughout the development of this new generation adventure bike, Yamaha's key goal was to deliver class leading off road performance together with outstanding road abilities and offer a genuine long-range potential. The slim design of the fuel tank belies its 16-litre capacity, and its narrow rear section offers plenty of rider mobility and excellent knee grip. Whether you're sitting down or standing up, the compact dimensions of this long-range fuel tank enable you to shift your weight around effortlessly – and thanks to the excellent economy of the 2-cylinder engine, 16-litres of fuel will give a potential riding range of over 350km which gives the Ténéré 700 a high level of year-round all-terrain versatility.
