Specifications: Engine: liquid-cooled, 16-valve, DOHC, inline four-cylinder Transmission: 5-speed Horsepower @ RPM: 145 HP@ 8000 RPm Torque @ RPM: 99 lbs/ft@ 7000 RPM Displacement: 1298 L More info from Top Speed: The FJR's 145 horsepower, light aluminum frame, push-button
adjustable windscreen, standard ABS, adjustable ergos and more, widen the gap between
it and common sport tourers to a gaping chasm.
Steering on the Yamaha is spot on, with the 26-degree rake and 60.6-inch
wheelbase delivering a near perfect blend of maneuverability and stability.
Tipping in at 672 and 686 lbs (632 and 646 tank-empty), the regular and
automatic FJRs are well-balanced -- the extra 14 lbs of the AE almost
imperceptible. Turning on the FJR is an afterthought with transitions
effortless -- the best of our testing group.
Suspension is provided by Yamaha's Soqi 48mm fork and a
single rear shock, each unit delivering a respective 5.4 and 4.8 inches travel.
The fork is adjustable for preload, compression and rebound, with small knobs
on top of the triple clamp allowing riders to dial in a setting with relative
ease. The shock is adjustable for preload and rebound with an accessible lever
under the right subframe offering a hard and soft setting. Both components suck
up road imperfections without trouble and transmit a solid, familiar feeling
when underway. The Yamaha ergos are comfortable, encouraging long stints in
the saddle. A wide seat was one of the best in our test, although some testers
preferred the Kawi and BMW perch. Seat height is adjustable, between 31.5 --
32.3 inches. Reach to the bars and pegs feels natural but the FJR riding
position is eager as well, egging its master to wick up the throttle. The regular FJR grinds out 123.6 horsepower and 88.8 lb-ft
of torque at the rear wheel. Subtract 2.4 ponies and 3 lb-ft and you get the
power numbers from the AE. The practical application of this power translates
into a more than enough oomph for the street. Both bikes are spry enough to
loft the front wheel, although we were loathe to wring out the clutch-less AE
in an effort to pull a wheelie for fear of looping out. Throttle response isn't
the smoothest in our test, but isn't a problem either. The one caveat being a
brief hesitation in engagement at low speeds on the automatic |

Showdown: 2022 Aprilia Tuareg 660 Vs. Yamaha Tenere 700
Thu, 25 Aug 2022Middleweight adventure bikes duke it out on a 2,000 mile tour Credit: Photos by Evans Brasfield | Videos by Sean Matic As we motored slaunchways across Utah, the late daylight stretched our shadows and cast golden hues against the tall canyon walls, further accentuating the contrast between the rust colored ancient seabeds peppered with lush green juniper and muted sage. The lavender sky over Bryce faded as we continued westward on Hwy 12. Refusing to pack a second visor for my Shoei Hornet X2, I lifted the dark smoke shield as I led our crew into the dark dense forest, keeping my line of sight just above the Ténéré’s windscreen in an attempt to protect my peepers from the onslaught of kamikaze insects.
