Yamaha Ténéré 700 Extreme - A Not So Extreme Review & Testride @biketrollhattan4412

The T7 Extreme just stood there on my dealers floor, waiting to be tested ...so why not, what have happened since i tested the T7 Standard a few years ago. Pretty much what was needed to be done :)

Thanks to @biketrollhattan4412 who let me take a ride on this cool bike.

Mattias on a Tenere. That's a sight! But something tells me you will stay orange :D I would be a happy puppy if I could get me one of those!

Måste säga att jag är väldigt nöjd med min T7, precis stoppat in nya K-tech fjädrar, blev otroligt skillnad. Tack för testkörningen.

Excellent look at the T-7 Extreme. Mattias!
If my local dealer had any T-7 and if they would take my 22' 890 Adventure S on a trade, I would make the trade.
I love the 890 but I'm a Yamaha guy from the mid 70's. Its time for me to get back on Team Blue.

The power of the dark side is strong... will this old padawan stay in the light or step over to the dark side 🤣 I had a good look at the bike at my local dealer today, and it looks way better in real life than on pictures and video. Damn it looks aggressive. Wish they had the same seat as my world raid. Great riding Tjommi, and the dessert colour looks great on the blue tenere. Cheers Tjommi 🥃

Nice review, and nice riding Mattias 👌. The T7 Extreme seems to be a good progression for the standard bike, the suspension and the dash etc. Great bike and good to hear your thoughts. Cheers, Steve 💚

Great review, keep them coming, I am fortunate enough to have both the 790r and the T7, but after three years owning both bikes I still prefer the 790r, better for distance, better fuel range, and suspension, and because I'm only 168cm the ktm is more manageable 👍

Aaah, the nice views of Trollhättan! Swooshing through Syltrebro Dal in Sjuntorp and raising an extreme hell on the gravel roads. Nice review, thank you for the insights!

[philippegosseau]

Very honest review Mattias . Thank you

[raimondasminiotas]

Thank you for answer Mattias .I'm owner KTM 890 .21.S Version .i'll test next week, on the gravel roads, a new T7 Explore.

The Pirelli Scorpion Rally (STR) is impossible to ride off-road people say. Mattias says hold my beer 🍺 😂 For an “extreme” T7 I would love to see it born with better tires, and a better exhaust, and for god sake get rid of that license plate fairing already 🥵 You should have ripped that off before you took a leak and pissed on that 😂 Great video, happy belated birthday. Life is for living eeh ☺️🙌🏻

I own my t7 extreme for few month now and i absolutely love it. I’ve become a lot better on this bike with my off road skills, the cp2 is so smooth and has a perfect behavior on the trails ! I would only love to have maybe 10-12hp more for the road use . Maybe this is because i went from 160hp to 74hp 😂
I can only say my step father is a former cross and trial rider and he can’t keep up my pace when i hit the throttle with his norden 901 expedition although it is a more powerfull bike (on technical offroad tracks ofc) 😁

Thank you for your insight to this bike. Early or later we switch over to Japanese bikes 😂👍🏻 - Thomas started first, then I had to downgrade due to multiple reasons and you are looking at that T700 😎

[danstevens]

The high fender on that still has the low section behind the forks so mud would still build up the same. I’ve got a standard T7 with quite a few mods but I’ve never had an issue with mud build up.

Mellan 14:00 och 15:00 minuter talar ni samtidigt som ni visar när ni kör, ljudkombinationen var usel, men hörde inte er tala och hörde mer av motorljudet. Ingen bra kombination. Schysst review annars. Tack för delningen.

[Motografs]

Very interesting insight from someone riding the mighty 890 R, cheers!

[kostasrestas]

very nice man !!!
im huppy already with mine !
Tenere 700 is a fabulous bike !
cheers from Greece !

I had a 890ADV-R and now have the T7. I do wish the T7 had traction control. When using compromise tires on dirt, wet clay and wet grass in particular, especially off camber, TC can help keep you upright. With knobs TC probably wouldn't add anything to the T7, but it definitely has a place with tires, like the OEM Pirellis, that also have good street manners, when they are in slick conditions.

Stay orange, not blue, Mattias. Nice trails, especially now in spring. Trees blocking your way? We have that over here, too. Not made by nature, but by farmers ;-) Happy rides, Günter/Nürnberg

[generallabamba]

great review! my extreme is coming this may! what tires were you running?

[TheSpragz]

Sold my 2023 890r and ordered one of these at Xmas. So far it’s been pushed back 3 months. Pretty annoying now I’m seeing people everywhere getting theirs.
