Yamaha Super Tenere 1200 thoughts
Discussion
Evening all, I have a Suzuki V Strom 1000 2016 model as a second bike, which I use for touring and times when I want to keep the KTM Superduke off the road but still fancy going for a spin (winter times etc). I want to keep with the adventure bike style and was wondering if anyone had got any thoughts on the Yamaha Super Tenere? I know they are heavy but the build quality and durability seems impressive. So, fire away with thoughts or alternatives.
A friend has one. He's done just over 100k on it - including a recent 6 week 10k tour around Europe.
Iirc very little has gone wrong, maybe an injector and consumables but it has burnt a little oil.
It's had a LOT of abuse including 2 up to central Africa and back.
I think the main complaint is it is very very heavy feeling
