dallas is on a distinguished road
The T7 is a great lookin� bike, but what I don�t understand is the fact there won�t be any XT660�s as of 2017 and the new XT700Z Tenere(what it will probably called?) won't be available earlier then 2018? That doesn't make sense, because there will be no adventure bikes besides the XT1200Z from Yamaha for a year(or more)? Customers will go shopping with the competition, like BMW, Triumph, Honda or KTM, I think, nobody wants to wait another year for a new adventure bike. I really think Yamaha's playin' us and will unexpectedly come with the new Tenere mid 2017 as a surprise(that's what I do hope anyway!)? Time will tell, but I really don't understand this marketing strategy, if they are this far, why would it take another year or even more, to develop and produce the new Tenere?
