YAMAHAXT 1200Z Super Tenere 2012 - 2013

　　In 2012, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha XT 1200Z Super Tenere, an adventure motorcycle with the same package as the previous model, without any modifications whatsoever.

　　The Yamaha XT 1200Z Super Tenere was an adventure-touring motorcycle that debuted in 2010. It was the largest dual-sports motorcycle in the XT series and was named after the region in the south central Sahara.

　　Like the previous model, the 2012 motorcycle packed the same standard features, such as a dual-headlight system, a medium-sized windscreen, a two-piece dual seat, a high-mounted exhaust system, an engine plate, and wire-spoke wheels with road tires.

　　In the performance department, the 2012 Yamaha XT 1200Z Super Tenere took its force from a 1,199cc four-stroke parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine, boasting an output power of 110 hp at 7,250 rpm and 114 Nm (84 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.

　　The bike's power was handled by a six-speed manual transmission and sent to the rear wheel through a final shaft drive, pushing the motorcycle to 192 kph (120 mph).

　　All the bike's bits, pieces, and elements were bolted to a steel frame with a 43 mm fully adjustable telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable shock absorber on the rear, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling.

　　As for the braking power, the machine packed two 310 mm discs on the front and a 282 mm disc on the rear, operated by hydraulic calipers, offering excellent stopping power enhanced by an Anti-Lock Braking System.
