The YAMAHA TENERE 700 (2019-) TENERE 700 EXPLORE (XTZ690) (MY24) is an adventure-style motorcycle, rather than a car, built for riders who want to mix everyday journeys with longer trips and rougher roads. In the UK it sits among middleweight, go-anywhere touring bikes, offering a more manageable alternative to large adventure motorcycles. For the MY24 Explore, the appeal is its upright riding position, useful wind protection and confident feel on broken roads, while its lighter, simpler character can make it less intimidating than bigger touring bikes. It suits experienced commuters, weekend explorers and riders planning holidays; it is less suited to those seeking a low, lightweight city runabout. It is known for balancing road comfort with off-road ability, competing with models such as the Honda Transalp and Suzuki V-Strom 800DE. mycarcheck.com has one lookup, showing an average private-sale valuation of £8,900; this tiny sample is indicative, not a market-wide price.
