The Yamaha XTZ750 Super Tenere appeared in 1989 in the image and likeness of the rally racing version of the Yamaha YZE750 / 850. The motorcycle was oriented for export to European countries (in different years it was also sold in the countries of Oceania and South America) and is not presented in Japan. The model is also called - ' Yamaha Super Tenere 750 .
It was based on an in-line 2-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a volume of 749 cm³, producing up to 69 hp. power and 67 Nm of torque, which was a record figure for those years and civilian versions of motorcycles of the Dual Sport class. The engine features a dry sump lubrication system with 5 valves per cylinder.
On the chassis, the Yamaha XTZ750 Super Tenere has a steel tubular frame, long travel suspensions, disc brakes front and rear, and large spoked wheels.
Other features of the model include a 26-liter fuel tank, a 5-speed gearbox and 226 kg of curb weight.
The junior model Yamaha XTZ660 Tenere was built on the basis of the Super Tenere 750.
1995 was the last year of production for the model, after which it finally left the market, unlike its direct competitor Honda XRV750 Africa Twin, which was available until 2000 inclusive. Only in 2010, the Super Tenere series received a continuation in the face of a completely new model - Yamaha XT1200Z Super Tenere. Also, the engine concept was not lost, but continued to be widely used and was developed on the TDM and TRX series models.
