The stock plastic assembly does its job, but it is visually heavy and sits well below the tail in a way that many owners find at odds with the rest of the bike's purposeful design. Removing it is one of the first modifications Tenere 700 owners make, and this bracket makes that straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe OEM rear fender on the \u003cstrong\u003eTenere 700\u003c\/strong\u003e extends well below the tail unit in a long, practical mudguard shape that works on unpaved roads but gives the rear end a bulkier appearance than the bike's overall lines suggest. It also carries a meaningful amount of plastic mass behind the rear axle, contributing to unsprung weight at the tail end of the chassis. Many owners prefer the cleaner look of the exposed subframe and tail unit without the fender in place, particularly on bikes used primarily on-road or on hardpacked trails where the extended fender adds little practical benefit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCNC Aluminum Construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bracket is machined from \u003cstrong\u003eCNC aluminum\u003c\/strong\u003e — either 6061 or 7075 alloy depending on the variant — rather than pressed steel or injection-molded plastic. \u003cstrong\u003eCNC machining\u003c\/strong\u003e produces precise, repeatable geometry that holds its dimensions under vibration and temperature cycling, and the anodized finish protects the aluminum surface against corrosion and trail debris. The result is a bracket that maintains its shape and appearance over the lifetime of the bike, without the cracking, yellowing, or stress fracturing that plastic components can develop over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eweight saving\u003c\/strong\u003e over the OEM assembly is modest but genuine. The stock rear fender, its mounting hardware, and the integrated plate bracket together weigh more than this aluminum unit, and that reduction sits in unsprung and tail-end mass where it has a small but perceptible effect on rear suspension response. More significant in everyday use is the structural rigidity — the aluminum bracket does not flex under vibration, which keeps the license plate and indicators correctly aligned rather than oscillating independently at speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVisual and Practical Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the OEM fender removed, the rear of the \u003cstrong\u003eTenere 700\u003c\/strong\u003e reads substantially cleaner. The subframe rails and tail unit end are visible without the plastic fender bridging between them, and the license plate sits close to the tail in a position that looks considered rather than utilitarian. For riders who have fitted aftermarket tail bags or soft luggage systems, removing the stock fender also eliminates a common point where bag straps or panels catch on plastic edges under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bracket mounts the license plate in a legal vertical or near-vertical position and provides mounting points for the rear turn signals, either retaining the OEM indicators or accepting common aftermarket units depending on the configuration selected. A small \u003cstrong\u003eLED license plate light\u003c\/strong\u003e is typically needed to replace the OEM plate illumination that was integrated into the stock fender assembly; these are widely available as inexpensive add-ons and straightforward to wire into the existing loom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment — \u003cstrong\u003eYamaha Tenere 700\u003c\/strong\u003e (2019–2025)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bracket is designed for the \u003cstrong\u003eYamaha Tenere 700\u003c\/strong\u003e from the 2019 model year through the current 2025 production run, including the \u003cstrong\u003eWorld Raid\u003c\/strong\u003e variant. It uses the same subframe mounting points as the OEM rear fender, bolting directly into place without any modification to the frame or subframe. No drilling, welding, or irreversible changes are required, and the stock fender assembly can be refitted at any point if circumstances change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes fitting this bracket affect rear mudguard protection on off-road terrain?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt does, and that is worth stating honestly. The OEM rear fender extends further below the tail unit and provides meaningfully more protection for the rear shock, subframe, and undertail area from mud, water, and debris thrown up by the rear wheel on loose or wet terrain. Riders who use the \u003cstrong\u003eTenere 700\u003c\/strong\u003e regularly on muddy trails or in sustained wet conditions should weigh that tradeoff carefully before removing the stock fender. This \u003cstrong\u003efender eliminator\u003c\/strong\u003e is a better fit for bikes used primarily on hardpack, gravel, or road where the extended OEM mudguard offers limited practical advantage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the license plate remain legal after fitting this bracket?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bracket positions the license plate in a vertical or near-vertical orientation that is visible from the rear, which satisfies the basic requirements of most US state vehicle codes. Riders should verify that their specific state's regulations are met in terms of plate angle, height from the ground, and illumination before riding on public roads. A small LED plate light is typically required to replace the illumination that was integrated into the OEM fender assembly, and this is not included with the bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this fit both the standard Tenere 700 and the World Raid?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The \u003cstrong\u003eWorld Raid\u003c\/strong\u003e uses the same subframe and rear fender mounting geometry as the standard \u003cstrong\u003eTenere 700\u003c\/strong\u003e, and this bracket fits both variants across the full 2019 to 2025 production span without modification or additional hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Morrison","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58752677511549,"sku":null,"price":99.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/0783\/2445\/files\/tenere_700_licence_plate_holder4.avif?v=1790348271","url":"https:\/\/leananglemoto.com\/products\/licence-plate-holder-for-yamaha-tenere-700-2019-2025","provider":"Lean Angle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
