New 2010 Yamaha Super Tenere 1200 revealed at last

1 of 4

This is the finished production version of the new Yamaha Super Tenere 1200
parallel twin adventure bike the Japanese firm hopes will take on the BMW
R1200GS.

The Super Tenere has long been expected and the final production bike shows off a 1200cc parallel twin motor, advanced ABS and traction control systems and brings new life to the adventure bike class that has been dominated by the BMW GS for so long.

Tomorrow morning (Thur) Yamaha will launch the bike in the metal at the Turkish Bike Show in Istanbul and MCN will be there to bring all of the latest news on the most important Yamaha for years.

You can read all about the new Super Tenere 1200 in next week’s MCN where we will have a full analysis and investigation, plus we’ll take a stab at assessing how it might stack up against the BMW R1200GS and the new Ducati Multistrada 1200.
