Yamaha Ténéré 700 motorcycle

The Yamaha Ténéré 700 is a highly acclaimed adventure motorcycle designed for both on-road and off-road capability. It derives its name from the Ténéré desert region in the southern Sahara, highlighting its heritage in rally racing, particularly the Dakar Rally. The bike is powered by the CP2 crossplane parallel-twin engine, which is known for its linear torque delivery and reliability.

While Yamaha is a quintessentially Japanese brand, the Ténéré 700 units sold in the European market are primarily manufactured at the MBK Industrie factory in Saint-Quentin, France. This facility is a wholly owned subsidiary of Yamaha Motor Europe. This strategic manufacturing location allows Yamaha to efficiently serve the high demand for adventure bikes in the European region.

Under the ultimate ownership of Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd., the brand continues to lead in the global powersports industry. The company maintains a strong focus on innovation and engineering excellence, ensuring that the Ténéré line remains a top choice for adventure enthusiasts worldwide.
