I haven't seen anywhere how much the MT-09 Tenere's weighs? The FZ-09 it's based on is four hundred some lbs. I'm sure the MT-09 Tenere is heavier but don't know.
That said you are correct and I did not propose this bike for the kind of riding you want to do... it is only a step down from my 1200cc ton and a half Super Tenere'. I have had a ball on the gravel roads around Morganton on my Super Tenere' this 900cc version would be just that much more fun.
I must say that the big Super Tenere has been a joy on the road. This years ride to Baja, Mexico, 7,923 miles 23 days was super fun and quite comfortable!

It is the actual Yamaha Worldcrosser and indeed weighs 575 lbs.
It looks like a revised version of you Tenere.

The link you posted for the Worldcrosser (with knobby tires) is not an actual bike.
It's a concept bike that someone made up and is dreaming about.

And we know that you love your Tenere.
Why aren't you out riding it instead of posting to this forum   :P

I'd eat up those tiers in no time flat.

This is the work of an artist who imagines bikes before they are officially revealed and A&G publish his work.  Looks great, though.  If it is similar, I'd be interested.

Saw this on a facebook post...This looks to be a serious off road oriented adventurer...287 pounds dry.
