XT1200Z Yamaha Super Ténéré 2010

Yamaha finally comes out into the open with his maxienduro of last generation and has the long-awaited XT1200Z Super Ténéré. Facts and features make your mouth water well immediately, at least to those who love motorcycles and all-rounder from the House expected a tuning fork of the three all-terrain height of the coat of arms of the legendary model that preceded it.

Here’s a glance the technical characteristics of the new Super Ténéré 2010: The engine is a twin with distribution frontemarcia DOHC 4 valves per cylinder 1199 cc, with a 270 ° crank mechanism, capable of 110 hp at 7,250 rpm and 114.1 Nm at 6,000 rpm. The frame is steel and provides the engine as stressed. The suspension is adjustable, the spoked wheels for tubeless tires meet the classic measures maxienduro – 19-inch front and 17 inches at the rear (as we had anticipated last October) – and the final drive is shaft drive. Aesthetics is a true queen of the desert and wind protection is great tourism. The declared weight in running order is of 261 kg. The petrol tank is 23 liters.

You can buy 8 March 2010 only online on a website dedicated to Yamaha at the event, in one version, “First Edition”, featuring some accessories fitted as standard, to be Paid from 2011when the bike goes on sale at usually the dealer network.

After years in which, starting in 1979 with the XT500 and then from 1983 with the XT600Z Ténéré, Yamaha has raced and won the Paris – Dakar and the African marathon usually featuring beautiful single-cylinder, in 1989 comes the phenomenal XT750Z Super Ténéré. Lightweight, powerful and resistant to any exertion, with Stéphane Peterhansel won six editions of the Paris-Dakar. The production model soon became synonymous with travel without borders and when he went out of production leaving “orphan” those motorcyclists “four seasons” they had in their maxienduro all I asked for a motion handyman: power, protectiveness, ability to deal with paths off -road to travel thousands of miles even when fully loaded. Today, that myth back in the guise of the new XT1200Z Super Ténéré. We see in detail what’s there.

ALL NEW
The heart of the project is the twin frontemarcia from 1199 cc (bore x stroke: 98×79, 5 mm, the pistons are forged), Yamaha designers have developed with particular attention to full-bodied delivery over the period of revolutions. Power comes with electronic injection, the head is at 8-valve DOHC el’accensione to 2 spark plugs per cylinder. The maximum output is 110 hp at 7,250 rpm and maximum torque of 114.1 Nm at 6,000 rpm. The timing is at 270 °, with burst intervals of 270 ° and 450 ° and then angle between the feet of rod 90 degrees. These design choices, in addition to the Super Ténéré 1200 remain in the tradition of the old route 750, to ensure high linearity and a supply relationship between the throttle and feeling the rear wheel directly.
There are two balancer shafts to reduce vibration , and the front also operates water pumps and oil. Lubrication is dry sump, but the oil tank is in the crankcase to reduce engine height and lower center of gravity so without sacrificing ground clearance, equal to 205 mm. The exhaust system follows a 2-in-1 with a 2-stage expansion and the terminal section is oval, with output high on the left side. The catalyst honeycomb is placed at the point of intersection of two collectors and there are two oxygen sensors.

DERIVED FROM ELECTRONIC CORSE
the throttle adopt the YCC-T system (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle), through which the ‘ throttle opening is managed and measured electronically in order to determine the optimal intake of air volumes, with beneficial effects on the regularity of payment, sullefficienza combustion and therefore also on the enforcement of limits on emissions.
XT1200Z The new Super Ténéré is the first series with Yamaha ‘traction control’: the system measures the speed of the front wheel and rear to determine if the rear is losing grip. If so does the ignition timing and nutrition (injection and throttle) to regain traction. You can set the system on three modes: “TCS1″ is standard and occurs when the rear wheel starts to slip, “TCS2″ reduces the effect of traction control, allowing a limited slip when driving off-road; “Off” allows driving without electronic controls.
Mappings distinct and easily switched to the control unit Engine management: “S” (Sport) makes immediate the response, T (Touring) spray pattern ensures more streamlined and manageable.

integrated brake with ABS and UBS
The braking system, called UBS (Unified Braking System), works quite full and is associated with the ABS system. In the case of Super Ténéré the control box monitors, in addition to the rotation of the wheels, the speed of the bike, level of deceleration and slip, thereby preventing blockage. But the innovation introduced by Yamaha with UBS means that it is distributed the braking force between front and rear calipers wheels, by operating only the front brake lever! According to the Yamaha engineers will have its greatest benefit when driving off road often standing on platforms with no possibility of acting on the rear brake pedal. The control unit determines the pressure to be transmitted to the rear brake, taking into consideration the instantaneous velocity and the pressure on the brake lever. Moreover, the system does not interfere with the precision control of the rear brake when using eg driving with a passenger or U-turns at low speed. Finally, if you operate the rear brake before the front, the electronic control automatically switches off and the pilot has full control of the bike.

AD HOC CHASSIS
The chassis is made of high strength steel. The fork is upside-down 43 mm and is fully adjustable while the rear is a monoshock adjustable for preload and rebound damping, combined with a cast-aluminum swingarm with low pressure and length optimized for the best feature of the suspension. The long swingarm does not compromise the compactness of the new Super Ténéré, because the engine is “short”, although of high displacement, and the radiator is mounted on the left side of the bike, to save space in the area behind the front. The electronic devices and battery are on the right side, and the flow of cooling air is distributed on both sides, thanks to the shape of the dome and the outlet for hot air.

BYE BYE CHAIN, C’E ‘IL PTO
transmission shaft drive was chosen because it requires little maintenance and avoids the traditional cleaning, lubrication and adjustment of the traditional chain. The gears of the transmission are ipoidale profile, ie with a particular design that helps you define the size and weight, helping to reduce unsprung weight in the area of the rear axle.

LONG LONG WAY
to long journeys The attitude of the new Super Ténéré 1200 is evidenced also from the tank with a capacity of 23 liters, for a range exceeding 300 km. The seat is adjustable in height (845-870 mm), as well as the windshield, so that riders of all sizes can find the driving position more comfortable. Fairing is an outlet to 12 volts to charge cell phones and GPS navigators comfortably. The front lights two lamps is powerful and, as sull’R1 does not use a filament separate beam and low beam: the beam is switched on, a device activated by a solenoid obscure part of the headlights, when the driver selects the beam , retracts allowing the complete screening of the light beam.

MAXIENDURO BY DEFINITION
The new Super Ténéré 1200 is equipped with sturdy aluminum spoked wheels with tires 110/80-19 “front and 150/70-17 at the rear. The front wheel has two guides “Double T” for the housing of the ends of the spokes, while the regulation system of the same lies at the hub. The rear rim, being larger, has instead a single bays of the rays.
Series are the cuffs while the footrests are lined with rubber inserts for comfort when driving on the road, but when the weight of off-road rider moves on treadmills rubber inserts flatten and broaden to improve grip and increase the grip of the boot. Series there are also side protection paramotor and the FPS, while the rear seat is reinforced to prevent damage in impacts on Jeeps, especially when mounting the panniers.
