The Ténéré was named after the most gruelling Saharan stage of the Paris-Dakar Rally
Powered by a four-stroke, 4-valve 595cc single, offering 46bhp and 51Nm
The XT600Z (3AJ) from 1988/ 89 with twin headlights and electric start was the last, and some say the best, of Yamaha's range of desert-ready, single cylinder 600s
This example is presented in good running order and ready to go according to its current owner
Imported from Greece in 2021 and used in the 2023 Sandraiders event in Morroco
Prepared for the event at a cost of £2, 000
Tank and cowling have been repainted post race but the sand from the event has been left on the bike!
The bike ran trouble free throughout the race and starts first time on the electric start, it still sports the race numbers
Great addition to any good off-road collection
UK-registered on a V5C
