Protect your Tenere 700 engine with Touratech's Expedition Skid Plate. With a 21” front wheel and good ground clearance, the Yamaha Tenere 700 likes to wander off the beaten path. You are likely to find something on the ground that will make dangerous contact with the underside of your Tenere. You best protect it with an Expedition Skid Plate which offers three levels of protection in one skid plate. The stainless steel base plate distributes the load, while the heavy-duty 4mm aluminum shell provides robust protection. This is capped off by reinforced nylon sliders that absorb impact and provide a sliding surface to glide your Tenere over any obstacle in its path.

Expedition Skid Plate Design:

The foundation of the Expedition skid plate is a 4mm Stainless Steel reinforcement plate that is engineered to absorb and disperse impact forces by linking together solid mounting points on the aluminum skid plate and the motor.

The next level of protection comes from the heavy gauge 4mm aluminum skid plate engineered with corrugated channels for maximum strength and stiffness. The mounting bolts are recessed in the channels for added protection and ease of service.

The Expedition Skid Plate is finished with high-strength, fiber-reinforced polyamide-nylon sliders that absorb impact and provide a sliding surface for negotiating obstacles. The rails also protect the bolt heads from rocks and other ground hazards.

Touratech's Expedition Skid Plate offers unprecedented protection for your Tenere's engine. The heavy gauge stainless steel mounting plate absorbs impact while supporting the oversized 4mm contoured skid plate which has integrated polyamide-nylon rails that absorb impact, protect bolt heads and provide a sliding surface for overcoming obstacles.

There was a change between 2021 and 2022 models when Yamaha switched to Euro 5 emissions standards.  Skid plate fitment is different between these models, so if your bike is a 2022 Euro 5 model, and has exhaust headers that looks like the picture below, please select 2022 as the model year before adding to cart.
