SoCalMule 106 Posted November 6, 2018 Roughly 420# wet (my fuel weight math) seems pretty good weight for a bike of this size. They seem pretty agile when Bags and I watched them running out in the Borrego sand. I like that the picture of the instrument panel, it has a 79 mph indication.

Bagstr 287 Posted November 7, 2018 Compare the Crank height vs the swing arm pivot, on the 790 vs 700. Next look at the fuel tank location. Is there a weight offered for the Yamaha? Both sport the the Dakar exhaust location. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PastaPilot 17 Posted November 7, 2018 5 hours ago, Bp619 said: I like specs of the 790 but just think these new bikes look super ugly That 790 is hideous. And a porker. 189kg is 415 pounds plus 5 gallons of fuel. 446 pounds. What's up with the bulbous plastic fairings around the engine? Are they there to facilitate trail side repair headaches? Only limited info for the Tenere as it has been announced as a 2021 model. Its not nearly as sexy as the concept bike, but when are production bikes ever as good looking as the concepts that inspired them. Yamaha's other 700 based bikes weigh in at 399 and 410 pounds ready to race WITH a full tank of gas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

97xr400r 122 Posted November 8, 2018 Ahh, the neverending search for the unicorn. Wish the ktm and the yamie were 75lbs lighter, that would be game-changing. Seems the old 950 super enduro holds its own against both these bikes though. Was really hoping they would hit the 350lbs mark and be smooth enough for all day highway. I was really excited for the yamaha but it looks like it gained 50 lbs from the prototype... Coolest mini-bike at the show!!! ps You guys heard of the CRF500L builds?

Bp619 104 Posted November 9, 2018 Yup was tempted to upgrade 950 super enduro to 790r but doesnt look like an improvement maybe just mpg which is horrible on 950se Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really like the look of this bike. It's too bad that Honda couldn't use these hand guards on their new CRF450L!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
