I installed Stiffer Springs for My Tenere 700

Will these 6.6 N/mm forks and 90 N/mm shock springs make a difference? In this video, I will show you the last modification that I did on my Tenere 700.

I made a few mistakes in this video, but I found them later, during the editing and it was too late to correct them. The numbers that I gave are wrong. The calculation needed to be with the Tenere suspension travel which is 220mm front and 200mm rear. Then the numbers will be completely different and everything will make sense. Also, static sag is when the bike stands on its tires, and race sag is when you sit on it. Someone even corrected me in the comments, thanks! Anyway, the riding test explained everything. Plamen also test the Tenere with the new springs and confirmed my words.

Hello Pavlin. F*** the algorithms! Don’t be shy to make these types of mechanical videos 45 mins in duration. If like me, I’m confident your Subscribers will enjoy them as much as I do and make their favourite beverage last (or even have a sneaky second)!!! Keep up the good work….. you are certainly helping more than just one person. All the best.

Suspension upgrade is by far the best modification I've done on my 500x. Hagon, a British company, took my weight together with pillion and luggage and sent me a whole rear shock with a remote preload adjuster. This last bit has made switching between solo and loaded pillion a 2 minute job, and so much easier than before.

Thanks so much for this show.

Great video, Pavlin, and probably an upgrade I will need to address in the future....Thank you! All the best for a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2023....ride safe!

Excellent video! Thank you for the info.

What a nice garage, and even better if the mechanic knows the bike so well

[@ashleypearce3507]

Excellent video thank you for the details on the spring rates I have just purchased a 2024 Tenera

[@silfear1]

I was thinking about similar upgrade on my bike as well. Thanks for the video. I'm convinced now it is worth it :-)

Aaaah, all that „Balkanism“ is heartwarming:

Congratulation Pavlin 👍

Hi Pailin, Happy New Year to you and your family. Thank you again for great instructional video. I don’t have the Tenere, but the XSR 700 and like you have changed the front and rear suspension. They are designed for the average Japanese rider nearly half our weight 🤭. I went for K Tech. set up and it’s a very different bike. Spent my money on that first, pretty thing later. Save travels on your next adventure 🍻

[@mistergarrison7559]

I like the longer videos 💯

[@ee222224]

Thanks Man for the good video. My CRF1000l have same problem. I to same upgrade like you. Keep going.

Hi Paulin. I am 77 kg , I started with just rear spring swap, got this "Uprated shock spring Yamaha Tenere 700, white, 85 N/mm Item #: SF-TTS-T700-85" fro German webshop. With no bag I got correct sag with zero preload , leaving space to whatever heavy rear bag. ... what a difference in riding ! Your spring rate/rider weight ratio is on a soft side i reckon. The rear end behaved awesomely with my new spring. I had plans to swap front springs and cartridges (to get rid of small hits from rocks), but... 2022 came and I had to sell my bikes, my house, garage and leave from Russia, but this is another story. Enjoy your rides !
