While the U.S. makes due with the single, base Yamaha Ténéré 700, Europe now has three distinct models. The latest was announced earlier this week … The Ténéré 700 World Raid.

The World Raid is a harder-core machine with longer travel suspension, 6.1 gallons of fuel capacity from two separate tanks, and has other features not found on the lower-spec versions of the Ténéré 700. Here is a list of unique features on the Ténéré 700 World Raid provided by Yamaha Europe (with metric measurements):

• 23-litre capacity dual side-mounted fuel tanks
• Flat Rally inspired 2-piece seat
• 5” colour TFT meter with mobile connectivity
• 3-mode switchable ABS
• High specification 43 mm KYB front forks, 230 mm travel
• Öhlins adjustable steering damper
• Aluminium piggyback rear shock, longer 220 mm travel
• High-torque EU5 CP2 engine
• Newly designed air cleaner box

The new fork has 9.1″ of travel and is adjustable for compression, rebound and spring preload. The new rear shock has a different linkage and offers 8.7″ of travel.

You can find more details and specifications on the Yamaha Europe web site. Below is a nice video from Yamaha introducing the new model.
