What to look for
The CP2 engine itself has a strong reliability record via the MT-07, but this session found no Australia-specific fault pattern reported for the Ténéré 700's own chassis, suspension or electrics.

This is a checklist, not a diagnosis. Anything that fails, or that you can't check, is worth a mechanic's pre-purchase inspection. Amber “unverified” tags mean we couldn't confirm that figure against a manufacturer source.
