Yamaha is preparing to bring new updates to its existing product catalog, as the brand has revealed the 2026 update of its most popular adventure motorcycle, Tenere 700 World Raid. The brand has revealed the overall design and cosmetic highlights of the new Tenere 700 World Raid on its official YouTube channel. Along with the new visual highlight, the 2026 Tenere 700 World Raid also gets major technical and chassis upgrades.
While the overall design is based on the standard Tenere models, the new 2026 Tenere World Raid features a refreshed headlamp layout with a four-beam design, revised bodywork, a new windscreen, and additional enhancements. The major visual highlight that instantly grabs attention is the new Redline White paint job, which gives the motorcycle a modern appeal.
Backing this new setup is a 6-axis IMU that manages smart features like traction control, slide control, and ABS. Riders can choose between Street, Off-Road, or Off modes to adjust how much electronic support they want. ABS can also be turned off completely or just at the rear for better off-road control. The braking system uses Brembo calipers and large 282mm discs for better feel and consistent performance.
The 2026 Yamaha Tenere 700 World Raid retains the dual tank setup from the standard version. However, it gets a redesigned layout, along with a weight reduction of about 1.5 kg to enhance the overall ergonomic proportion. Chassis updates include a new set of fully adjustable KYB suspension components with 230mm of travel at the front and 220mm at the rear, 20mm more than the standard Tenere 700. Also, the 16-step adjustable steering damper will now be available as standard.
Powering the 2026 Yamaha Tenere 700 World Raid is the same 689cc CP2 parallel-twin engine, now updated to meet Euro 5+ emissions standards. The power mill is capable of pushing out a peak power and torque output of 72 hp and 68 Nm, respectively.
