![Yamaha Tenere 700 - Long Term [66,000km] Owners Review](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/2Oj8ka2F9Pc/mqdefault.jpg)
Believe or not. I am back, somehow. Few months ago, I somehow lost my motivation to do my videos in English. I felt there is everything in English done already and I can hardly compete. So since that I focused entirely on my Czech channel, where I have lot of friends and I can do it slow and easy :)) Anyway. I am constantly trying to improve my visual and audio quality and I also have some nice stories and experience to share. So I decided few days ago to try to do time by time some video in English. This is the first one about my beloved Tenere 700. Bike like exactly designed for me. Make sure you don't miss my Intro 00:45 and outro 16:18 to enjoy traveling on this lovely bike with me.
I can't wait to see known faces and users in comments. And I hope to see you soon on my next videos. I am pretty much thinking about recording Yamaha Tenere 700 vs. Honda CRF1100L as on both I did this year 10 000 km. Thanks and take care!
I'm still waiting for your thoughts and comparisant between Kawasaki Z900RS and Yamaha XSR900. Even though I already owne Z900RS it's interesing to know how did you compare them. If I was buying a second brand new bike I'ld most probably buy Tenere 700, it's a best looking middle weight adventure bike and it's reasonably priced, the only big thing which is missing is a cruise control.
I was just thinking about those two bikes that would be a Kool 😎 vid
Yes there are a lot of videos out there, But you made me think again about the akropovics, and saved me a lot of money as i was ready to order one. Thanks for the excellent video!
Hehe......I kinda missed that! :-)
Maybe this exhaust from Wings in Slovenia is worth checking out, also not too expensive.
wings-exhausts.com/exhausts-eu/yamaha-eu/tenere-700-eu/
Your English is outstanding.
Certainly a lot better than my Czech...
Cheers!
@Matt how's your Czech?
youre really good a this. you should keep doing it. i bought my xsr900 because of you..
Keep posting, you have one of best review channels around, to bad just 22k subscribers here, deserve much more.
Thanks for coming back! I agree with the other comments...we missed you! Love your content...especially as a tall person! Your English is totally fine, don’t stress about it. Looking forward to more content! Ride safe!
I agree. Your English is fine! Great review and very informative. I’m 187cm and 91kg so your comments are valuable.
Disappointed to hear you felt that way my friend. Glad to see you back.
I think many people on TH-cam experience(d) the same problem. It was actually ok, but doing two channels with same videos in two languages was really stressful and I was worrying more than enjoying it if you know what I mean. It happens that people lose their main passion or hobby just because they create too much videos about it :D I did not want to happen. And it is now ok. I enjoy it again the same level as I was beginning haha. Thanks!
@@JFMotorcycles I know what you mean. I have lost a bit of passion for motorcycles this year since COVID19 and not being able to use my bike as much. Went out today on my trusty Tracer 900 whilst the sun was out though. 😎
Welcome back.we all miss you.thanks for all
Good to see you back doing English language videos again, JF. I always enjoy the videos you put up.
Your English is just fine. It is easy to understand. You don't fast talk and personally I like your laid back narrative style.
As I am 198 cm, 113kg this is an extremely helpful review. Thank you! Definitely considering buying this in the next few months.
Did you get it?
176cm, I pick mine up early next month😉
Good to see a new post on your channel. Was always impressed at the quality of your vids considering English isn't your first language.
Stumbled across this video by chance. Top quality. Your English is very good. I'm a Brit who has lived abroad for 25 years and your English is a good as any C level executive I have met..
I definitely want to see a comparison between Yamaha and Honda, keep on going dude you are pretty damn good.
OMG he lives! I really thought you had some accident or other... Great to see you!
It is nice getting a perspective from all over the world, every country, thanks for the informative video and the great ending, your English is great. From Australia cheers !
Without watching the video, I subscribed simply because of how you detailed your description. Now, onto the video.
Follow up. Glad I subbed. This is my first video watching from you so I'm sure I have several more to watch. Your English is easy to understand as well. Great video!
Excellent no-nonsense video!
I like your highly pragmatic approach to select useful items in order to keep the bike
slim and nimble and without running into a christmas tree configuration.
Item with biggest impact: stronger rear spring
Item with least impact: Akrapovic
Nice to have a review from a tall person perspective for the Tenere. For me, you should not feel you need to compete with other reviewers.
You did a great job with your English, and gave a wonderful review that leaves me feeling more informed.
Thank you.
It's arguable that good quality handlebar protection is sufficient to protect the T7 such that you don't really need the additional weight of crash bars.
Some say that heavy impact on after-market water pump protectors can crack engine casings.
Your English is fine.
Love the choice of music.
Very useful video for potential T7 owners like myself. Thanks for sharing and your English is of a very high standard by the way!
Thanks for the great, no bs, review of your accessories. Also nice to see what works for a taller person on the Tenere.
Very good insights from someone who has actually ridden this bike over a long distance. There are very few people like you on TH-cam, so keep doing what you're doing!
I would really like to see more of your adventures on the Greece TET with your Tenere. Really enjoyed the 4k content. At least to my knowledge there isn't much high quality content on TH-cam showing the Tenere in it's natural habitat :) It's mostly reviews but not much RAW or scenic stuff.
Excellent video , great to see you back :)
Excellent, sensible and independent review. Obviously you have extensive experience with English. I used to do business in Czech Republic at a time when English speakers were rare, so I speak a butchered version of Czech (strasny). Keep the vids coming. After careful consideration I installed a full header and can from LeoVince. Good value and nice sound. There is a youtube video with clips of about 20 cans on the T7 so you can hear the "songs". Keep up the good work. I love my Tenere and you obviously share the same passion.
Great video. I'm a tall rider at 198cm so I like to find opinions from other tall riders. Keep up the good work.
You are indeed correct, every topic on every bike imagineable, and every accessory has a youtube video recorded however, not many have the intelligent thought and logic put into them as you have done. Well done. Keep up the good work.
Thanks. Enjoyed your video and tips. Just bought one here in USA. Your English fluency is awesome!
I will travel with my yamaha tenere 700 from Poland to Hungary, passing Romania I can't wait!
Keep it going JF, your English is superb and your style of review is very interesting unlike a lot of other reviewers. You have also changed my mind about buying the Akra .
I would like to say (write) that this movie is one of the best movie which I have seen!!! Bravo!!!
It"s great to have you back. Was beginning to think something might have happened to you...
Hi, many thanks for great and honest user review. I am 189cm and 100kg was wondering if this bike will be able to carry me forward, after seeing your video no doubt anymore. I am riding currently 1250GSA and thinking to get my a..s on something smaller which will give me opportunity to learn more off road. Greetings from Switzerland
Excellent review and from a tall guy considering a T700 very much appreciated. Your review was spot on thank you! I like your style of presenting very informative.
Thanks for the video guy. I'm on the cusp of getting a T 700 and this was helpful. Your English is better than some of my friends from Indiana by the way.
Thanks for this vid. I really like your way of presenting and talking. I'm 1,95 myself and always happy to see some people with the same needs...and thanks for speaking english ;)
First of all let me say that you english is perfect, so nothing to change about it 👌
Your first video on the T7 was the 1st I saw, after yours I saw a million other videos and reviews but yours are still the most useful.
So many of the others keep speaking about technical details and riding feedback, which are ok but after a while they seems all the same.
In your videos I found pros and cons expressed in a very honest way.
You're also one of the few people (maybe the only one I saw until now) of my own size and weight, and this makes your feedback EXTREMELY important for me and all the other people like us.
Please continue 🙏😊
One last thing, what do you think about the T7 as a first bike for people totally new on motorcycles?
Thanks!
Hope you'll do a full video of your trip on TET. Few minutes at the end and your shorts samples are magics
Nice video. Nice setup
I'm 196 and 110 kg. My Rear spring is 90Nm and i recommend you 6 or 6,3 Nm fork springs (i choose 6,3 with 90) for a perfect match with your rear spring. Both on and off road. Better for braking and off road use.
I agree that the original engine guard is light but it does not protect the water pump tubes. I received a flying stone on the lower tube. No breakage, only a "poc" this time but if it was the case when traveling it would be seriously bored. I changed to an ACD plate. Very strong and small "wing" to protect the tubes.
Finally, the SW Motech ION footrests, wider than OEM, can be adjusted in height - 1.5 cm. Top comfort sitting and standing for tall guy with Yamaha higher risers handlebar .
Good ride.
Alain
Nice to have you back. Nice footage from Greece.
I'm currently waiting for the delivery of my T7. Maybe next week. Ordererd the SW-Motech waterpump guard too, because it so nicely designed, hahaha ;-) You're right: the rallye seat is good for tall guys like you. I'm 1,75m and even have to lower the suspension of the T7 a little bit and even then won't have my feet flat on the ground. But it's enough to stand without struggeling to much. Your video was interesting and your english is far better than mine. Greetings from Hamburg/Germany.
Do you think a sort of traction control system could make the tenere a safer/better bike?Compliments for your english, much better than a lot of lousy speaking american/english speaker, all the best
I think it does I wouldn't buy one till it does. The rally version looks so nice though. TPMS is a must to really it will tell you a tyre is deflating before you start wobling and loosing control.
Great video & your English is great too. Please keep doing your reviews
Thank you! Will do!
more and more considering in buying this bike... beautiful.
Fantastic review, and a wonderful bike!
Edit: Your English is perfect!
So glad you are back!!!
Great video. When at EICMA at the Hepco-Becker stand you praised their hand guards as probably the best ones. Why did you go for Barkbusters. Im soon pushing the button to order hand protectors...
Enjoyed the video, thank you. English is fine, I can understand you better than I understand my own kids.....
The most reliable videos on these bikes are from owners like yourself. That phone holder is awesome! Would also like to know about seat comfort as when I test rode one I found the seat very hard, if you find a better one than the rally let us know! Can't make up my mind between this and the triumph rally pro...You're English is very good, no problems, thank you just subscribed.
Great review! I have a T7 and I was just wondering what other accessories I should get when I saw your video. Thanks! I'm going to get the water pump guard.
Ah, finally, a tall guy riding a Tenere 700. I'm a little taller at 194cm, 6ft 4 inches. Enjoying your video. Excellent English, too.
Great to see you back JF!....Really informative content and well presented....You really don't need to be concerned about your English....it's excellent and your videos always watchable..Thanks for returning!.cheers.
I found this video very helpful and am glad you decided to do it. I would also love to see more of your trip. The little teaser at the end looked amazing. Thanks for posting.
Nice review. I have also a Tenere 700 and i love it. I have the black Akrapovic on it. You can drill out the DB-killer and it will grumble (it is mounted with a screw to put in again). It is loud but i love the deep grumble, pops and sound!!
Awesome to have you back man. Keep them. Videos coming
Many thanks for the English post! Very good explanation. But which tires do you have underneath your T7? I want to replace my original str but i don't not yet which ones it gonna be.
So I tested classic Continental TKC 80. Good for off-road expedition, does the job on dry tarmac, obviously not the best on the wet road. They are loud and significantly decrease the power of the bike. You feel like it goes 5-7 % slower on acceleration. They simply are heavy and have some serious resistance.
I tried Michelin Anakee Wild. I hope they were the best fit for Tenere, but I did not have the best feeling from the front in a bends first around 2 000 km. After 3 300 km rear tyre was gone, so I changed on the expedition.
Now I have in the back Pirelli MTS 90, seems nice. There is more material than on original STR Rally, but probably they are not more offroad oriented.
Many people around me use Heidenau Scout K60. They last a lot and they are great on dry road/off, but losing on a wet as far as I know. But this one I would try for an expedition. Similar category are some tyres from MOTOZ. Don't know the type, but people say the last incredibly lot. Haven't tested.
From the new models I would like to try Dunlop Trailmax Mission. They mark it 50:50 tyre, which is from what I see misleading. But for an expedition where it is majority of road, this may be a great tire... So to sum up: for offroad expedition I will now look for either MOTOZ or Heidenau, for rather onroad experience I will try new Dunlop Mission.
@@JFMotorcycles thank you for your explanation. Maybe i also wanna try the dunlop trailmax mission or maybe te bridgestone ax41. I have to think about it. Many thanks for your answer!
You’re English was just vine, you got a like from me.
Great video. Thank you! Your English is great, dude! Easy to understand everything you're saying. I ordered my T7 back in January 2021, and I'm still waiting for it to be delivered. In the meantime, I've been ordering parts for it. This video helps so much. I keep coming back to watch it, to see what else I should get. How did you mount the phone mount?
Thanks for your review, very smart. What is the brand of your saddle bags? Cheers.
Excellent. Keep the videos on the T700 coming. I'm tall like you so I really value your reviews.
man, thank you very much for the review! I'll consider all the advices when I'll buy my Tenere. And that outro is lovely!
I'd get a tidy tail. Just purely for aesthetic reasons. Otherwise, the bike is perfect. You did a nice job with the mods.
Great bike and prime accessories you have on your T7. Very vivid video as well. Keep up the good work and safe travels to you mate!
Very well done movie and helpful advices regarding Tenere accessories 👍 don’t worry about your English, just keep doing what you love ❤️
Great info, thanks for sharing. Where did you get the rubber skid pads on either side of the tank, I guess they help when you stand and squeeze with the knees. Looks great.!
greetings from Veracruz, México!!! good video , the T7 is comming soon in this country...... 👍🏼
Couple other reviews I’ve seen said the stock fuel tank cap has a tenancy to leak. Did you find that on your trip. Would be also exchanging it out at some future stage. I have a Czech friend I ride with here in Australia and your English is very good probably as I’m used to your accent. I’m potentially looking at purchasing T7 in 2021 for an around Australia trip. Thank you for your honest and to the point review. Keep up the good work and hope the comments renew your enthusiasm
I'm happy you are back. Don't worry about your language.
Maybe I would change the indicators for smaller ones, in addition to being less prone to breakage, it increases the technological and aesthetic values that go very well with the design of the motorcycle (strangely they did not make them better as standard, although I understand that the philosophy of this motorcycle is to reduce costs while keeping a simple spirit). One thing that I think you did not comment on is the tires, they are not the original ones, right? The originals say they are not very good.
Seat looks awesome, I’m used to not being able to touch the ground without my butt off the seat, just tall bike things
Greetings from Greece! These were some nice trails!
Good review - your English is fine. Cheers
Very good and very useful review of options for the T7. Thanks
Motorcycle guys are often actually very aware and very concerned about the looks and sounds of their recreational vehicle, even more than bonsai tree cultivators. It's a good thing
you're right on everything: keep the weight low as much as possible, akra exhaust is too expensive for no value, front suspension is not that bad except if you're riding hard offroad (but in this case it's better to directly buy a ktm 300 exc or 450 rally ^^). I ordered my t700 with rally seat and yamaha crashbars and then I will add some sw motech or touratech accessories for long range travels. Nice video btw, better than many others about t700 ! cheers
Try Scorpion serket parallel exhaust (great sound). The OEM light protector looks great. I have it on my bike, and it`s great.
I really want this bike! Thank you for making the video. And thank you for doing it in English ( only language I know) I am also really tall. So it is nice to see what it looks like for a tall rider to be on the bike. I think the bike will fit me, so thank you again. Now I just need to find the bike, all the dealerships where I live (Oregon USA) this bike is sold out. It is very popular. I really liked the windshield device that raised and lowered it.... And the handlebar crash guards seem like a necessity, the stock ones look cheap on weak. Also I like the montage at the very end of the video next to the water. Well done! I'd ride with you if I had the bike to ride, and we were in the same country. Lol
Glad you are back! Your video are amazing!! Thank you very much!! oh and by the way for the Akrapovic, take the spark arrestor out and you will get a beautifull sound! that's what I did on mine and I'm very satisfied!!
What the camera did you use? The best quality that I ever seen
Excellent video, good to see you back, one of the best about Tenere
Your English is fine . It is a bit tall for me . I am 6' tall but have a short inseam and a taller torso . I am barely on the balls of my feet when seated . The seat on mine is okay but the longest ride I have done is only 55 miles . I would like to have a larger/taller windscreen or an adjustable one . The Outback Motortek upper and lower crash bars didn't fit when I tried to install them , what a nightmare . Had to send them back . Talked to the part owner/owner and he was really nice about it . I learned about tolerance stacking . My Tenere is just a bit different than others as far as the millimeters go . Now I have to go and look up what 193 cm add up to in feet , haha .
Okay you're 6'4" , no wonder you can flat foot this bike .
Great to see your back.
Nice to see your vídeos in english again. Keep going.
Whats your toughts about the tires and tire Chambers?
Great vid and I like your upgrades. Do you miss not having a centre stand and have you changed the tyres?
Your english is just fine. Nice review!
Thanks so much. Looks like it was a great trip. Seems like well thought out accessories. Ride safe.
This is a great video. Your english is beautiful, and I appreciate your sincerity a lot.
Fantastic video! Subscribed! I hope to see more English content in the future; you speak the language very well.
10:10 Where is this ? Beautiful scenery and great review. Keep up doing good job!
Thank you, sir. Hello from Bulgaria.
Great to see you back!!
Great stuff, I enjoyed that. I like the luggage set up. Did you feel the top box made the handling worse?
my T7 just arrived from the factory in france..... nice video. Hey, your english is pretty nice.....way better then my czech ;-)
Great review mate I didn't catch what tyres and pressures you are using and also the gearing my WR450F MY19 is really responsive to gearing changes and also fork height just MMs through the triple clamps makes an amazing difference my WR actually likes the backpressure of the DB killer on my GYTR full exhaust it actually runs heaps better and not so bloody noisy. Food for thought 👌
Your English is fine man. Good honest review.
Great information. The water pump looks good
Good video with helpful info
Please try and keep it coming in English if you can at all. Your English is excellent. Your ideas, thoughts and commentary are considered and thorough and clear expression of ideas and your actual experiences. You are in that sweet spot of a legitimate actual solo traveller and you take reasoned risks so it is interesting to watch your videos and your video production skills are very very good. If not maybe show us a link to your Czech language channel and we can work with sub titles and still follow you. All the best!
Love the video. Nice mods to keep it not too heavy. Great content. Really enjoying your videos.
Thank you for this informative post and your honest opinion. And your English is perfect. Thumb's up !
