Super Tenere --

Thought it was to be fitted with a new twin 1200cc lump. If that is to be the case it just shows Yamaha haven't learned anything from putting a big cruiser motor into a sports bike chassis and creating the poor selling MT01.

If the Super Tenere was due out soon with a twin of about 1000cc I might have held back on my purchase of the 660Z. Now with the Africa Twin out of the equation and the rather prissy Transalp aiming squarely at road-riders I reckon a harder edged Super Tenere would take a healthy market share.

Just my tuppence worth
