Yamaha Xt660z Tenere

The Yamaha Xt660z Tenere has a top speed of 170 km/h (estimated; note: varies by load and conditions), produces 48 hp and weighs 206 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.

تم تقديم Yamaha XT660Z Ténéré في عام 2008 كإحياء حديث لاسم Ténéré الأسطوري، المستوحى من XT600Z Ténéré الأيقونية في الثمانينيات التي هيمنت على رالي باريس داكار. تم تصميمها على منصة XT660R التي أثبتت كفاءتها، وأضافت خزان وقود أكبر سعة 23 لترًا، وحماية محسّنة من الرياح، وبيئة عمل لرحلات المغامرات لجذب راكبي الرياضات المزدوجة لمسافات طويلة. وظلت قيد الإنتاج حتى عام 2016-2017 تقريبًا، واكتسبت سمعة قوية من حيث الموثوقية والبساطة والقدرة الحقيقية على الطرق الوعرة في قطاع المغامرات متوسطة الحجم.

ما يجب أن يعرفه المشترون

🔧

Watch the Throttle Bodies

The XT660Z is known for throttle body synchronization issues that can cause rough idling and hesitation. Regular sync checks every 10,000km keep this problem in check and are relatively cheap to fix.

💰

Strong Resale Value

The Ténéré holds its value exceptionally well due to its cult following and proven adventure-touring reputation. A well-maintained example loses value slowly compared to most mid-size adventure bikes.

🌍

Battle-Tested Engine

The 660cc single-cylinder engine is derived from Yamaha's legendary XT660 lineage, known for surviving extreme conditions on multiple world record overland journeys. With basic maintenance it commonly exceeds 100,000km without major rebuilds.

Budget-conscious adventure tourers who ride off-road regularly

"Tough, honest adventure bike that earns respect on dirt roads."

$4,500-$7,500 used

The XT660Z Ténéré is one of those motorcycles that rewards patience. It's not fast, it's not particularly pretty, and the single-cylinder thumper will rattle your fillings loose on the motorway — but point it at a gravel track or a badly-maintained B-road and suddenly everything makes sense. The 660cc engine has genuine low-down torque, the suspension is plush enough for loaded touring, and the upright seating position means you can genuinely cover big miles without arriving in pieces. Buying used, you're looking at bikes that have genuinely worked for a living. Check the subframe for cracks, inspect the rear shock carefully — they go soft and replacements aren't cheap — and look hard at the fuel tank for dents or rust. Chain and sprocket wear is common on neglected examples. The good news? Parts are plentiful, the engine is essentially bulletproof if serviced regularly, and the community support online is excellent. Mechanically confident riders will love owning one.
