Vagabund Yamaha Tenere

Built in celebration of the Yamaha Ténéré's 40th anniversary, this exclusive design by Vagabond Moto perfectly marries contemporary style with a nostalgic touch, following the design principle "form follows function." The remarkable motorcycle boasts a vibrant color palette, embodying a modern retro vibe. Its eye-catching features include built-in taillights, an elevated front screen, and a sleek grey and white digital camo finish. Enhancing both style and practicality, the bike incorporates Zieger crash bars, a skid plate, and a specially crafted brake disc protector.

Several clever modifications, such as an upward-angled exhaust and a Pelican case with rear crash protection, contribute to improved performance and functionality. With an integrated rear rack, Carhartt-WIP bags, and SW-Motech side carriers, this bike offers smart storage solutions for your adventurous journeys. Its power lies in the robust 689cc parallel-twin engine, equipped with a crossplane crank, ensuring remarkable torque throughout the RPM range.
