But they'll probably send it to Canada There's a group test on it in the September issue of TWO, a Brit. bike mag.

Love it!  Is it a twin?  Witrh ammo can panniers might be a better LD ride than the new F800GS.  I would consider one!

[burnergold2B]

Ammo cans away!! Bead blast the cans, poder coat em red!

It's a twin AND a 1200?! Whoa.

[JamesG]

I would be completely satisfied if Yamaha would just bring us the 660 Tenere...

I really thought it would happen for a while but now with the economy, Harley & Suzuki laying people off ect.... I dont think the Tenere will be coming.

I think this bike could have really took some US sales away from KTM, BMW and the ever poplular KLR.

"...made of cloth."  

Will we ever see it on this side of the pond?  

[Rincewind]

Apparently the new Super Tenere is Arabic?    

[Oilhed]

1200cc!  Shaft drive!  Twin radiators!  This could be the one, without the burka.

Thanks for the link to the website. I doubt they bring it to North America, but will start agitating Cypress tomorrow. Below are some pics

[Schneegz]

That new Super Ten looks like a far-off concept.  I wonder how long it'll take Yamaha to make it a reality.

[protondecay123]

Allegedly they are looking at Fall 2010 / Winter 2011 to be at the dealers. I doubt we get it here in the states, but I'm calling Cypress today.
