2018 Yamaha Super Tenere 1200,

The 1200 Super Tenere!!            Yamaha s Ténéré line of bikes was meant to mimic the style and rugged nature of the Paris-Dakar racers famous for traversing some of the most unhospitable regions of planet earth, including the bike s namesake, the Ténéré region of the Sahara Desert.                                                                                                                               The 2018 Super Ténéré boasts a host of technologies to rival a German luxury sedan: electronic suspension, unified brake system, heated grips, cruise control, traction control, throttle-by-wire with dual-mode throttle control, LED rear lighting, and dual LCD displays. There s a large 23-litre fuel tank, dual aluminum "Jesse" brand,  32-litre side cases, rear rack, four-position adjustable windscreen, two-position adjustable seat height, and a dash mounted DC outlet, which all complement the bike s touring capabilities.  The side cases are lockable, water resistant, and easily removable.                                                                                                                                                                                                   The powerplant is an 1,199cc parallel-twin hung as a stressed member in a steel backbone frame with an aluminum swingarm, rolling on 19-inch front and 17-inch rear spoked wheels. A six-speed transmission routes power via shaft drive, and dual disc brakes in front and a single disc at the rear handle stopping duties.                                                               The electronic suspension is one of the stand-out features of this bike. Preload and damping adjustments can be made from the saddle via the left handlebar mounted switches and the LCD display. Preload adjustment is done with the bike at a standstill, with four pre-sets: rider alone, rider with cargo, two-up, and two-up with cargo. Out on the road, the comfortable seat and tall windscreen make for a pleasant highway voyage.                                                                                       It has been fully serviced, and it is ready for your two wheeled adventures!!
