This is a series of resources on the Yamaha Ténéré 700 (XTZ690), compiled from press releases, the owner’s manual, the service manual, and online forums. It’s affectionately known as the T7 by owners.
Yamaha launched the Yamaha Ténéré 700 (XTZ690) in 2019. It’s a middleweight adventure motorcycle powered by the same parallel twin as in the Yamaha MT-07, a 689 cc liquid-cooled engine with a 270-degree firing order. But the T7 sits in an upright chassis with an adventure-ready posture, with longer-travel suspension and a 21-inch front wheel.
I compile information like this on motorcycles to help current and prospective motorcycle owners (including myself!). Below you can find an overview of the motorcycle and model variants, information on the maintenance schedule and service intervals, as well as parts you need for a standard service, guidelines for basic services like oil changes, drivetrain maintenance, and torque specs.

Are you obsessed with motorcycles?
Well, I am. That’s why I created this site — as an outlet. I love learning and sharing what others might find useful. If you like what you read here, and you’re a fraction as obsessed as I am, you might like to know when I’ve published more. (Check the latest for an idea of what you’ll see.)
About the Yamaha Ténéré 700
Yamaha released the Ténéré 700 in 2019, with some market releases delayed slightly until 2020. It was long-awaited and very hyped, but it has earned many happy customers (and some grumbling detractors, mind you).
The Yamaha Ténéré 700 is Yamaha’s “entry-level” adventure touring motorcycle, but it’s one of those bikes that’s almost the perfectly balanced adventure motorcycle — capable on the dirt and off-road, and also very usable on highways. Like every adventure motorcycle, it’s a compromise between on- and off-road performance, but it’s a great balance for a wide variety of riders.
The heart of the Yamaha Ténéré 700 is the “crossplane concept” CP2 twin-cylinder engine, a liquid-cooled parallel twin with 689cc of displacement. It’s the same engine that’s in the MT-07, and it’s a beautiful engine.
Part of the advantage of the CP2 engine lies in its compact footprint (and thus light weight), helping the Yamaha Ténéré 700 to overall be a relatively lightweight touring motorcycle — lighter than the “big” class of touring bikes, making it a capable middleweight adventure touring motorcycle.
The Ténéré 700 is also very reliable. The parallel twin format means that it’s easy to build both strong and light. It’s not a motor that people experience things like oil leaks, lost pressure, or other reasons to crack the cylinder heads.
But many riders (us included) also love the CP2 motor for its character, something which is not often said of motorcycle engines also praised for their reliability and useful power range. It has a crackling sound, partly thank to its 270-degree crankshaft, and when opened up with an exhaust is reminiscent of fire-breathing V-twins. Pretty special!
From 2023, the T7 has started to get a lot of competition, from the Honda Transalp 750 for example, or even the Suzuki V-Strom 800, which is also powered by a parallel twin.
At the front, the Ténéré 700 has dual 282 mm front discs with Brembo 2-piston calipers, and at the rear it has a single 245 mm disc.
What’s quite interesting is that the Yamaha Ténéré 700 has adjustable suspension, which is something slightly unusual on a mid-range bike (the T7 isn’t cheap, but it’s not a “top shelf” adventure bike). You can adjust the compression and rebound damping on the front fork, and you can adjust the preload, compression, and rebound on the rear shock — that’s near full adjustability.
Maintaining the Yamaha Ténéré 700 is relatively easy, thanks to wide service intervals. You change the oil at every service (every 4000 miles in the US, and every 10000 km in the rest of the world per the different versions of the manual), and only service the valves every 26600 miles or 40000 km.
The Yamaha Ténéré 700 comes in a number of different configurations, most notably Rally and World Raid. While they have different set-ups of suspension, fuel tank size, and other features like external protection, they’re the same fundamental motorcycle underneath and have the same maintenance requirements. (See the guide to variants below.)

Variants of the Yamaha Ténéré 700
Since launch, Yamaha has released a few variants of the Ténéré 700, including the Rally and the World Raid.
Specs vary somewhat by market (e.g. not every market got the colour LCD), but the below is how they stand for the US.
Generally speaking, there are two variants of the Yamaha Ténéré 700: the base model or Rally model, and the World Raid.
| Item | Ténéré 700 Base model / Rally | Ténéré 700 World Raid |
|---|---|---|
| Front suspension | 43mm KYB USD, 210 mm travel, adjustable rebound / compression damping | 43mm KYB USD, fully adjustable, 230mm travel |
| Rear suspension | KYB shock, 200mm travel, fully adjustable | KYB shock, 220 mm travel, fully adjustable |
| Steering damper | None | Öhlins |
| Fuel capacity | 16L / 4.2 US Ga | 23 L / 6.1 US Ga, dual tanks |
| Instruments | LCD | TFT 5-inch, Bluetooth |
| Add-ons | Standard | |
| Seat height | 880 mm / 34.5 in | 890 mm / 35 in |
| Ride aids | ABS | 3-mode switchable ABS |
See here for more about the differences between the base model and the World Raid.
The Rally is the same as the base model in its important specs, but it’s loaded up with add-ons. In addition to the base model’s standard features, the Rally spec gets as standard:
- Heavy duty skid plate
- Rally seat
- Akrapovič muffler
- Radiator guard
- Chain guard
- Off-road grips
- LED lights
The World Raid is a higher-spec and more exclusively priced version of the Ténéré 700. It has higher-grade, longer-travel suspension, a TFT display, and an Öhlins steering damper.
Using the Ténéré 700’s Screen and Controls
When assessing any motorcycle, I like to have an overview of the interface and the important controls — things like cruise control, rider aids, and adjusting rider settings.
Using the LCD
The base model’s LCD is more intuitive, as there are obvious physical buttons.
Use the top set button to move the display between odometer, trip meters, range / fuel consumption meters, or other things. Use the bottom set button to move in the opposite direction.
Push both buttons together to set the clock.
And finally, to switch off ABS on the Ténéré 700, with the bike stationary, press the ABS button and hold it until the ABS OFF warning light starts flashing.
Using the TFT
The TFT display has three themes. The Explorer and Street themes share a lot of information, but the Raid theme is different.
To control the TFT, use the handlebar controls.
The left switches are for operating between the major meters (trip meters, efficiency meters, range, etc.). Up, down, and reset.
The control wheel is for controlling the display and menu system. You can rotate it up and down, but you can also do a short press or long press to activate certain functions.
Here are a few guidelines for using the wheel switch:
- Long-press to get into the menu system. The base menu lets you switch Settings, ABS mode, Themes, Telephone notification settings, and Message notification settings. (The latter two are for Bluetooth connectivity.
- Rotate the wheel to select an item.
- Short press to highlight / de-highlight an item.
- Long-press to set / confirm a setting.
Yamaha Ténéré 700 Service Intervals
Generally speaking, the Ténéré 700 (of any model variant) has 4000 mile / 6 month (US) or 10000 km / annual (Europe / APAC) service intervals. At every service, change the oil, and do a host of other checks.
Check or change the spark plugs at every service. And every 26600 miles (US) or 40000 km (Europe / APAC), do a full service and check / adjust the valve clearances.
Note on the valve service for the Yamaha CP2 engine: The CP2 motor has twin overhead camshafts and a timing chain. Checking the valve clearances is a little tricky due to clearance, but adjusting them is trickier as you have to remove the camshafts, secure the timing chain, remove and replace the buckets (possibly replacing shims), then re-install the cam shafts and the timing chain with the correct timing.
The T7 has a liquid-cooled engine, so make sure the coolant is kept fresh. Same goes for the brake fluid which must be refreshed every two years.
Finally, if you ride your bike off-road much, make sure you service a few items more regularly, including the chain, air filter, external lubrication points, and change the oil more often.
If you have a TFT display, you can set maintenance intervals and reset them via the display’s interface.
Yamaha Ténéré 700 Maintenance Schedule
Below is the maintenance schedule for the Yamaha Ténéré 700. The below information comes from our sister website, maintenanceschedule.com.
Note that there are two maintenance schedules below.
- The US maintenance schedule has service intervals of 4000 miles (6000 km) or 6 months.
- The Europe/Australia/New Zealand maintenance schedule has service intervals of 10000 km (6000 miles) or 1 year.
There are some other similarities/differences between the schedules, too. See here for notes on Europe / US Yamaha maintenance schedules.
We’ve generally simplified the maintenance schedules and separated them out into “Periodic maintenance” and a full “inspection checklist”.
General notes on the maintenance schedule:
- After the final service on the chart, keep going, doing every second service.
- Yamaha recommends that for everything other than lubing the chain, changing the oil, and greasing external parts, you should have a Yamaha mechanic perform the service.
- Don’t clean the air filter with compressed air as you may damage it.

Maintaining Your Chain on the Yamaha Ténéré 700
The Ténéré 700 is an adventure bike that is likely to get some off-road time, or at least a lot of time in varied conditions. So the chain will get more abuse than on many everyday commuters.
Thus, it’s important to maintain your chain on the Ténéré 700. Use a good-quality and portable chain lubricant like Motul chain paste. Or for home maintenance you can use aa Motul chain care kit which comes with a couple of handy tools to maintain the chain.
Yamaha recommends you follow the following chain maintenance schedule every 300 mi (US) / or 1000 km (Europe) and after washing the motorcycle, riding in the rain, or riding in wet areas. Naturally if you ride your motorcycle off-road, you should attend to the chain more often.
| Chain maintenance item |
|---|
| Check drive chain lubrication condition, lubricating if necessary (Motul chain paste) |
| Check drive chain slack, alignment, and condition, adjusting / replacing if necessary See below for notes on chain slack |
To measure chain slack on the Yamaha Ténéré 700 of any model, measure the distance between the drive chain and the chain guide. Measure it when the motorcycle is on its side stand on a flat surface, and measure the distance between the guide and the middle of the chain pins.
Note that the chain slack on the base model and World Raid are different, due to the different suspension set-ups.
* Target chain slack for the Ténéré 700 base model / Rally: 43-48 mm / 1.7-1.9 in)
* Target chain slack for the Ténéré 700 World Raid: 40-45 mm / 1.6-1.8 in)
To adjust the chain slack, follow the procedure below. Make sure that the motorcycle is on a level surface on its kickstand, in neutral, with no weight on it (no saddlebags / luggage).
- Loosen the rear axle and the adjuster lock nuts on either side of the axle.
- Turn the adjuster nuts to tighten (or loosen) the chain. Keep checking the chain tension to see if it has come within spec.
- Keep an eye on the adjuster alignment marks on either side of the axle. Make sure that the adjustment is to the same point.
- When you’re done, tighten the axle to 105 Nm / 77 lb-ft, and tighten the adjuster lock nuts to 16 Nm / 12 lb-ft.
- Re-check the chain slack again to make sure it’s still within spec.
Yamaha Ténéré 700 Tire size and pressures
The following are tire sizes and tire pressures for the Yamaha Ténéré 700.

Most modifications for the Yamaha T7 center around making it viable for long-range transport.
Some of the first things I see people do include
- Add better protection — Crash bars, a better skid plate
- More lighting
- More offroad-biased tires
Alternatives to the Yamaha Ténéré 700
While the Yamaha Ténéré 700 has a huge following, it has a ton of company in the middleweight adventure segment. Here they are below.
You can read more about all these in the middleweight adventure motorcycle guide.
The Aprilia Tuareg 660 (one of the Aprilia 660 line) is a 2022 model. It uses Aprilia’s basic platform that powers the RS and Tuono street/sport bikes, but the engine is de-tuned for mid-weight power. The Tuareg 660 is quite high-spec, with cruise control and high-end ride gear (but lacking an IMU), moderately powered (with a peak of 60 kW / 80 hp at 6500 rpm, and light weight for its class.
The BMW F 850 GS is a do-everything vehicle that many seasoned riders like more than the 1250 GS for its versatility. It’s powered by a spicey 853 cc parallel twin with a 270-degree crank that tops out at 66 kW / 90 hp at 8000 rpm. It comes with the kitchen sink of tech, including optional dynamic suspension.
The CFMOTO Ibex 800 / 800MT is a middleweight adventure tourer powered by KTM’s 799 cc parallel twin that they stopped using in western markets for a few years. The CFMOTO bike comes loaded with tech, including cruise and an IMU, and its engine is no slouch.
The Ducati DesertX is an offroad sporty adventure tourer based on the 937 cc Testastretta-11 degree engine that Ducati uses in many of its motorcycles, from the Supersport to the Multistrada V2. The DesertX has a 21-inch front rim, long-travel suspension, the full suite of ride aids, and killer good looks.
The Honda XL750 Transalp is a rebirth of the Transalp brand, which had expired a decade prior with the Transalp 700, a motorcycle veering more towards being a commuter. The XL750 Transalp has a new motor, a 755-cc parallel twin, and enough goodies (medium-long travel suspension, a 21-inch front wheel) to give it mixed use pretention, without being a dedicated dirt bike.
The Husqvarna Norden 901 is based on the same platform as the KTM 890 Adventure R, an 889 cc parallel twin with a 270-degree crankshaft. It has great specs, with long-travel (even longer in the Explorer edition), fully adjustable suspension, and ever ride aid you can think of. Plus, it looks cool.
Kawasaki updated its iconic single-cylinder, low-power but unbreakable adventure motorcycle, the KLR650, for 2021 with fuel injection, ABS, and a digital display. It’s still the same cheap, back-to-basics adventurer that will get you anywhere and back, though not too quickly.
The KTM 890 Adventure R is the “Excitement” factor in the middleweight adventure motorcycle series. It has a sparkling 889 cc parallel twin (shared with the Husqvarna Norden 901), very long-travel suspension (longer than the non-R), and every kind of ride aid you can think of. Despite that, it’s one of the lighter bikes in the range (though not by much).
The Moto Guzzi V85 TT is an oddball bike, but it deserves to be included as it’s just so interesting. It’s powered by an air/oil-cooled longitudinal V-twin powering a shaft drive — this is the one you want if you don’t want to be lubing your chain! It lacks many ride aids, but it’s very big on character and style.
Suzuki updated their V-Strom for 2023 with the V-Strom 800DE, though it co-exists with the V-Strom 650XT (for now). The 800DE uses the same new sporty 776cc parallel twin as the GSX-8S, ditching the V engine associated with the series, and also earned a 21-inch front wheel, similar to its big sibling, the V-Strom 1050DE.
The Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro is the only middleweight adventurer to use a three-cylinder engine. The 900 Rally Pro is an update to the Triumph Tiger 800XE, but the 900 engine has a different, lower, more rumbling character. Aside from that, this is the same old luxury middleweight adventure bike, with every ride aid on the market available.
The Yamaha Ténéré 700 is an already-iconic middleweight adventure tourer, powered by the CP2 motor, a character-rich parallel twin we first saw in the Yamaha FZ-07. Yamaha blessed the T7 with an all-new chassis, long suspension (even longer in the World Raid edition), and classic good looks from the previous Ténéré 660. The Yamaha Ténéré 700 hasn’t got much tech in it, but that doesn’t stop people from loving it.
Other Related Motorcycles
If you’re interested in the Yamaha Ténéré 700, you’re probably also considering other motorcycles with the CP2 motor.
The Yamaha MT-07, formerly FZ-07, was the first motorcycle to use the CP2 parallel twin with a 270-degree crankshaft. It’s a naked sportbike, relatively limited on features, but very popular for being affordable, fun, and versatile.
The Yamaha XSR700 is the “modern retro” version of the MT-07. It has lot in common and differs only in style, with a round front headlight and different handlebars.
The Yamaha Ténéré 700 is an extremely popular middleweight adventure motorcycle, with an upright riding position, robust chassis, longer-travel suspension, and a 21-inch front wheel.
The Yamaha YZF-R7 is a middleweight sport motorcycle with a fairing, in part taking over from the discontinued YZF-R6. It has the same parallel twin motor as the MT-07, but has a sporty riding position and higher-end suspension.
