2023 Yamaha Tenéré 700
Ténéré 700 Rally Edition
Yamaha’s Ténéré hit the market at the end of 2019 and has been a huge hit in Australia. The times are beginning to move on, though, and there are now much better certified options in this medium touring genre than there were when the Ténéré 700 first hit the streets and trails.
For the Yamaha Ténéré 700 and Ténéré 700 Rally Edition 2023, Yamaha hasn’t completely changed any of the goals with a major revamp of the model, but has added a bit of kit to the mix on the standard model to keep the Tenere 700 a little more current in this completely changing market.
This is sure to prove popular in Australia where the Ténéré 700 currently dominates the sales charts of adventure tours.
When it first landed three years ago, the Ténéré 700 sold for $17,190 Ride Away. But with the recent frenzy of the plague, rising transportation costs, and reduced availability, the price for the 2022 model is currently $19,399 Ride Away. We will advise on the pricing of the 2023 versions when Yamaha Motor Australia releases along with an expected arrival time.
