There are 1000 opinions on oil, oil change intervals, filters, etc. I normally use OEM oil (Yamalube and Yamaha filters) while the bike is under warranty….then, whatever meets my bike manufacturer’s specifications. If you want to read until eternity……Google “what oil should I use in my car...

Bought mine on July 28, 2020, still own it, and just changed the oil and filter today after turning 16,000 miles.

Update…..the flat tire and ten mile ride destroyed the tube and rim strip. I learned something new today as the rear rim strip is a Herrman’s style rim strip which is common on bicycles. BUT, two things happened as the Herrman’s style rim strip lists for around $50.00!!!! and my local Yamaha...

Well, I spoke too soon.........caught something in the rear tire today and rode 10 miles with a flat rear Shinko 705 to my house. The tire had 8900 miles on it and was going to be replaced shortly anyway. It was an easy ride and the Shinko never hinted about coming off the rim.

Twin rim locks with two tubes?? How do you get all of that in the tire? I haven’t used two rim locks for forty years but rarely ran less than 15 psi offroad in rocky, tube pinching Missouri single track.

I ride 20-30,000 miles a year and have a flat every 2-3 years. The last tubed tire to go flat was on my KTM 690 rear tire almost three years ago……rode it with a flat rear tire more than 20 miles to my house as the tire was worn out anyway. I was able to ride it around 40 mph in little to no...

i post the following info on all motorcycle, car, and truck forums. If you want the very best, use these oils and chain lube..……always👍

The Yamaha OEM tall rally seat is much better for me as it eliminates the two piece seat (s) seam. It is taller at 41mm higher than the factory stock two piece seat set up.

Update time.......my Tenere 700 was delivered on July 28 and now has 3100 miles. I bought and will be picking up a used Yamaha Tracer 900 GT this Wednesday which will make my 2017 Kawasaki Versys-X 300 the odd bike out. The X-300 has been listed for sale.

I have an Outex kit ready to install at the first tire install.

I just read that there are two other colors than my white and red T7.........?????? Who knew?

Spotted on 08-14-20.

And, the Tiger weighs several thousand dollars more....

If they could get my yet to be delivered T7 to Sparta, Illinois.......THAT would be impressive.

I was glad he liked the T7.......I rarely ride anyone else’s motorcycle.

I rode with a buddy yesterday.....his red and white bike was delivered on Saturday June 20, 2020. We rode about 275 miles on the good roads of southern Missouri. He is happy with it so far....says it runs great.

I own a 2015 red Super Tenere and a 2017 green Kawasaki Versys-X 300. They will soon be joined with my recently ordered 2021 Tenere 700 in Intensity White and Red.
