2026 Yamaha Tenere 700 World Raid Parallel Twin 689

2026 Yamaha Ténéré 700 World Raid

With increased fuel range, improved comfort and enhanced on- and off-road performance, the all-new 2026 Ténéré 700 World Raid opens a whole new horizon in adventure touring capability.

Features may include:

• The Ténéré 700 World Raid 's enhanced KYB® suspension package includes a new, fully adjustable 46mm KASHIMA-coated fork offering ample 9.1 inches of travel with revised spring and damping specifications for better bump absorption, increased bottoming resistance and enhanced feel. It 's paired with a new linkage-type KYB® piggyback rear shock boasting increased stroke and 8.7 inches of travel for enhanced bump absorption and rear-wheel contact in demanding off-road conditions.

• New twin aluminum fuel tanks boost fuel capacity for the new Ténéré 700 World Raid to 6.1 gallons for significantly increased range. Tanks include two separate filler caps for a Rally-inspired look but are connected by a solenoid valve ensuring fuel level and air pressure remain equalized. These lightweight twin tanks also enhance handling and stability by reducing the effects of fuel movement while riding.

• Yamaha 's advanced Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) ride-by-wire system provides crisp, seamless throttle response and enables two selectable throttle maps, so riders can dial in their preferred power delivery: a SPORT mode featuring a more reactive, dynamic power delivery for more sporty behavior; and an EXPLORER mode for smoother power delivery more suited for off-road riding or wet conditions.

• A new six-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) enables lean-sensitive Traction Control, Slide Control and Brake Control/ABS rider aids for enhanced on-road and off-road performance. Traction Control features three modes (STREET, OFF ROAD, and OFF), Slide Control features three modes (STREET, OFF ROAD, and OFF), ABS features three modes (ON, REAR OFF, and OFF), while Brake Control enables lean-sensitive cornering ABS.

• A new adjustable steering damper offers 16 different settings allowing riders to dial in their preferred level of adjustment. The steering damper reduces effects of impacts transmitted to the handlebar by ruts, holes or side winds for an enhanced feeling of comfort, confidence and front-end control. The damper also features a stamped Ténéré logo for a premium look.

• The Ténéré 700 World Raid 's renowned CP2 engine combines exceptional reliability and exciting power delivery in a compact, fuel-efficient package. With an overall size similar to some single-cylinder motors, the 689cc fuel-injected, liquid-cooled, DOHC inline twin gives the World Raid a slim feel for exceptional off-road confidence, while the counterbalanced two-cylinder design provides smooth, broad power ideal for long days in the saddle.

• A lightweight, high-strength tubular steel frame provides a tuned rigidity balance for nimble, responsive handling with the strength and durability needed to tackle off-road terrain with confidence. The chassis utilizes a 62.8-inch wheelbase for stability and boasts 9.4 inches of ground clearance to tackle whatever the trail throws at you.
