Any new model is welcome, it was about time, now that Yamaha has tested the waters and found that the Tenere 660 has been so widely welcomed and popular, that they started competing at the higher level of the 900cc-1200cc clasess to finally put BMW and Honda's noses out of joint.

I know for a fact that when SuperTenere goes from being a concept to a real bike we will be here ready to welcome the new owners-brothers with open arms into the community, just as we did/anticipated the same for you XT660Z peeps when they were announced 3 years ago.

I hope its gonna be a ktm adventure killer instead of a GS-killer, with 18 inch rearwheel and upsd-fork and lots of torque and not to expensive, not to heavy, not to.....

something more like this instead of the creepy demonstration bike

Hope so too, but the drive shaft tells another story..:sad11:

Between �11k and 12k I reckon. If under 10 it would be cheap, but with those tech, unlikely.

The marketing blurb makes me laugh, it sounds like a combo of Lord of the Rings and Star Trek. Frodo and Sam would have an easier time if they ride the Super Ten.

Have a look at this.
1200cc is a big old lump!

What the fush is that. Come on yamaha someones being paid to make and market this which could have money spent else where and all it is.......is what

a pile of rags and some bike bits thrown in:sad9:. I think the report would say could do better.

I never understood the point of a concept bike/car, yes show us a picture or 1 off COMPLETE car/bike that could be built with no stupid things and then see what people say.

Eg not picking on any but the Suzuki B king yes at first the supercharger was crazy so you could have guessed that wasnt going to be on it but those exhausts come on what a change from the concept.

If its the new Pari Dakar bike it will be a 450cc.:064:

A vee twin with 2 wheel drive would be nice. :crowded:

Now that would be truely innovative! Perhaps a parallel twin though to keep it more compact?

Hmmmm...
