Yamaha's in-depth off road expertise is beyond doubt. Now the time has come to re-establish Yamaha as a leading force in the adventure segment with the introduction of the all-new Ténéré 700 - a lightweight no compromise adventure bike with one of the highest specifications in its class
Equipped with the successful CP2 689cc parallel-twin engine and a completely new chassis, the Ténéré 700 is designed to deliver class-leading handling and agility in the dirt - combined with high speed long distance performance on the road - making it extremely capable in Australian conditions.
A combination of linear and tractable power, pinpoint handling, clockwork reliability and the ability to be road registered in many territories has led WR450F to become a firm favourite with fast trail riders and racers alike. In Australia for example, the versatile WR450F has dominated the retail charts by selling more than any other motorcycle and in the process has introduced many enduro riders to the victorYZone over the last two decades.
Like the original 1999 WR450F, the new 2019 model is heavily based on the successful YZ450F platform – an apex predator motocross bike that blends mind bending power with total control.
Australia’s first meeting for Yamaha’s MT model owners took place at an iconic cafe on a well known motorcycle-friendly road in NSW on 26 August 2018.
Over 100 riders met at the Grey Gum Cafe on the Putty Road that connects Sydney to the Hunter Valley region to celebrate the popular Monster Torque range of models – from the original MT-01 right up to the latest Tracer sports tourers.
The event is the brainchild of 31-year-old diesel mechanic Leon Cutts from Singleton, NSW. “I know how popular the bikes are and realised that no-one had organised an event for the many passionate owners,” explains Leon, who is also the administrator of the MT-10 worldwide Facebook group.
Yamaha is pleased to announce the availability of the new heavily revised 2018 Tracer 900 and Tracer 900 GT.

Now for 2018, major upgrades are designed to build on Tracer’s strengths as one of today's most versatile and exciting all rounders. And the lightweight triple is now available in both standard variant without panniers and GT with panniers and more.

The first step into the victorYZone has been made easier with the release of Yamaha’s much aniticpated YZ65 junior MX race bike.
Demo ride events across the nation were organised to celebrate the release of the new machine on 3 June. And over 200 riders aged between seven and 12 were lucky enough to swing a leg over the new race bike.
“It’s great that we finally get the YZ65 in our hands and it’s a huge addition to the YZ line up,” says Yamaha Junior Race Team boss Scott Bishop. “The weekend demo events were the best way to showcase the bike – we simply allowed young riders to test the YZ65 and make up their own minds on just how good the bike is and how instantly competitive it will be,” he adds.
