Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits an intermediate to experienced rider comfortable with a tall, heavy adventure-touring machine.
PurposeIt is built primarily for long-distance touring and adventure riding across mixed pavement and light-to-moderate off-road terrain.
Rider FitThe tall seat height and substantial curb weight mean shorter or less experienced riders may find slow-speed maneuvering and off-road handling physically demanding.
CharacterIt has a steady, torque-rich, shaft-driven character that rewards a relaxed, confident riding style over long distances rather than aggressive sport riding.
Not Ideal ForIt is not a good fit for riders seeking a lightweight, flickable machine for tight city commuting or track-day speed thrills.

2014 Yamaha Super Tenere ES Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 848mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2014 Yamaha Super Tenere ES, with a relaxed knee angle of around 135 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
