The T7

The T7, remember when you were watching the Dakar for the last time and you thought, it would be amazing to own a motorcycle that mimics those amazing custom built machines that are able to eat the desert for breakfast... 

Well look no further becasue apparently Yamaha has a wire tap in our dreams.. admit it, it looks like a dakar model from the Future, I have to say Yamaha's desgns have been the top notch through out the years in every single segment they put their finger on. I mean I don't even get how well their marketing department is working, it really looks like they are listening to what people have to say, either from motorcycle club meetings, MX racers, wannabe Motogp guys and galls, World tourers or even city drivers.

Let's go back to the T7, Imagine you are bored of this Trump thing and all this civilized world bullshit and you just wanna grap those handlebars and twist the throttel and go as far away as possible, well the T7 serves exactly that purpose, and more.. look at these awesome pictures:

This is a mid size Dakar style Rally machine, it will rival bikes like Kawasaky Versys X, Ducati Scrambler Desert, Honda CRF250L Rally etc.. The T7 certainly walks on the footsteps of the old Tenere machines, but this one has KYB forqs, 4 LED headlights behind a transparent screen, an aluminum tank, carbon fairing and bash plate and its big enough for a tour, but also small enough for some hardcore off road stuff.

People have been buying 1200gs's for a long long time, but the Tenere is slowly gaining terrain, and the T7  is based on the MT07 engine the CP2 700 cc engine from Yamaha, which ultimately makes it as nimble as a feather to move around, specially if you get stuck in some mud, I mean with a 1200 gs you just face plant directly, with this , I guess you would be wheeling out of the mud hole.

Yamaha mentioned this would be the base for a new model in 2018, meanwhile I will continue to Rev my heart ;)
