Model-Year & Chassis Generation Notes
Updated in 2014 (DP04, later Euro 4 DP07) over the 2010 DP01 original, the XT1200ZE/ES gained 112 hp, standard cruise control, KYB electronic suspension, and an updated clutch basket.
Oil & Clutch Mechanical Engineering Note
Using an internal dry-sump tank inside the crankcase, remove both bottom drain plugs and refill 3.4 L of SAE 10W-40 JASO MA2 oil with filter HF204 plus 200 ml shaft oil.
Garage Wrenching Gotchas
- Tap-check every rear tubeless spoke nipple every 5,000 km and secure with medium threadlocker if needed—loose rear spokes are the #1 maintenance item on heavy gravel trips.
- Because the radiator and fan mount longitudinally inside the left fairing, sturdy upper crash bars are essential before taking this 265 kg twin off-pavement.
5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What oil volume, JASO grade, and oil filter code does the Yamaha Super Ténéré XT1200ZE (DP04 / DP07) (2014–2023) require?
Because its wet multi-plate clutch shares engine oil with the gearbox, run SAE 10W-40 (JASO MA2) at 3.1 L (3.28 US qt) drain-only and 3.4 L (3.59 US qt) with filter (5GH-13440-80 / HF204 (or HF145)). Also service final drive 200 ml.
How do you accurately check the oil level on the Super Ténéré XT1200ZE (DP04 / DP07), and what are its service intervals?
Hold the motorcycle dead-vertical on level ground 2–3 minutes after warm shutdown and verify the oil sits mid-way between the Upper and Lower marks in the crankcase sight glass—never on the sidestand. Torque the drain plug to 43 N·m with a new crush washer. Factory oil change intervals are every 8,000 km, with valve clearance inspection every 26,000 km.
What are the cold tire pressures, puncture repair type, seat height, and range of the Super Ténéré XT1200ZE (DP04 / DP07)?
Fitted with 110/80R19M/C 59V front and 150/70R17M/C 69V rear tubeless rims (compatible with roadside plug kits), set cold tire pressures to 33 / 36 PSI (225/250 kPa) solo or 33 / 42 PSI loaded. Seat height is 845 mm (33.3 in) at 265 kg wet weight, delivering ~426 km per 23 L tank.
