With the Africa Twin way over 200kg this might be a better option for northern Thailand and Laos.

There’s plenty of Internet sites claiming to have new information about the Yamaha Ténéré 700/T7 but the fact is there nothing more than media releases from Yamaha. Apart from rumours there seems to be no real facts on specifications, or a time frame for when it will be released. Basically, Yamaha is just dangling carrot in front of potential buyers that are looking for an adventure bike that's Japanese made. They may think it's a great marketing ploy, but the way I see it, it's pissing a lot of people off.
Just give us the facts without the glossy BS.
Concept, Prototype, Project, Blah Blah Blah. I simply want to know how heavy its going to be, and when can I walk into a shop without one, and then ride away on one.
Yamaha have now have a designated site for theYamaha Ténéré 700/T7

Few good photos here.

Fantastic Looking Bike and I see it uses the Pirelli Scorpion Trail Rally STR Tires designed for the Ducati Desert Sled! Unfortunately it is Heavier and Less Powerful than the Ducati and even more Disturbing is We are still waiting for it!!! How could Yamaha get everything so wrong with such a Brilliant Concept! This Eternal Wait they have put everyone through after Teasing this thing Years ago will hurt sales and when it is finally released it will already be outdated and the Competition will be offering something on par or better!
There's been a lot positive reviews on the Yamaha Tenere T7 since there big media day last week.
Here's two that are quite good.

In Germany the price is 9.299 Euro which is around 340.000 THB.
I guess the problem is, that the bikes are produced in france, so probably it will be fully taxed. So I am not sure whether it will come to thailand. Even that would be a shame, as it fits perfect for northern thailand.

And here We are 2 Years after Oddvar's original Post and this Bike is No Closer to Thailand! A Sad story of missing the Boat I think? By the Time it turns up KTM may have their act together here in Thailand and the 790 Adventure could be here?
I have read the North American model will be made in Japan, so if that's true some hope that the Japan built bike could make it here...North America due to get the T7 2020.
The first ones have just arrived In Malaysia I was told this morning so if they are going there they will come to Thailand?
Were I in the market for an Adventure Bike, I think the Tenere 700 would tick most of my boxes (except, perhaps, fuel capacity). The reports I've seen so far have been positive, particularly regards competitive pricing.
I'm trying to convince a mate I work with in KL that he should swap his MT-07 for one... then he can let me ride it (I haven't told him that part, yet).
