I have put up with this for almost 4 years! I can't believe it was such a simple fix, took me less than 5 mins, I was looking at getting a new spring and modifying it. No more complaining to my riding buddies that I've got a sore wrist and copping that sort of flack for it! 😆 Thank you!

[@AdventureTomek]

Excellent! Thank you for leaving feedback, some on here believe i'm selling snake oil 🤣

[@dalehatton6965]

​@AdventureTomek well I discovered today that my throttle doesn't quite return to idle when letting go of it close to low idle when I pulled up at the lights, my cables are free and throttle tube isn't sticky, there just isn't enough tension on the spring to get it back to closed, so I'll be putting it back to standard, I did go into Yamaha to see if I could get just the spring to see if I could modify it, but unfortunately you have to buy the whole throttle body. Ah well was worth a try, time to save up for cruise control.

[@AdventureTomek]

@@dalehatton6965 did you align everything correctly and not over tighten the 10mm nut?

[@rocolocoization]

This is incredible, best mod by far on my T7!!! Can’t thank you enough mate!

[@AdventureTomek]

Glad you like it! Thank you for commenting 🍻

[@priitpaltmann4942]

Thanks a lot man! I had no trouble with the wrist while riding, my problem was that my throttle lock was slipping a little. Now with a lighter spring pull throtle lock is rock solid. Great sucsess :) and also subscribed.

[@mountainbikerdave]

nice CUR tshirt LOL

[@smacnee3278]

I've noticed this immediately on my T7. I can spend 15 hours on my 500 with no problems but a little over an hour on the T7 and I notice my wrist is sore. I'll be looking at this mod soon.

[@AdventureTomek]

Highly recommend!!

[@danstevens2204]

Haven’t had an issue with mine

[@JePe89]

thanks for this conversion trick. I have already converted it on my Tenere 700 2023 as you showed. Greetings from Germany

[@AdventureTomek]

Great! What are your thoughts? Better? 🍻

[@JePe89]

@@AdventureTomek So just turning the gas handle when stationary makes it feel much better and easier. Unfortunately I haven't driven it yet because the weather is so bad this summer... :)

[@joshdoddadbod]

I was also wondering why my wrist was so sore. Thanks for this!

[@AdventureTomek]

Glad or helped! Thanks for watching!

[@pinkiewerewolf]

I'll have to remember this mod. On my first few rides my wrist was sore but I went for some longer rides this past weekend and everything was good to go.

[@AdventureTomek]

You won’t be disappointed!

[@gordonborsboom7460]

My problem is not the wrist, but a painful hand/ palm. Left hand is perfectly fine. As you said, about an hour in. On the highway at constant speeds. If in more point and shoot or non-constant throttle opening, absolutely no problems. Basically made the adventure tour part impossible. I will give this a try. Thanks P.S. I thought I would try a foam grip over the OEM grip, but never got to it

[@AdventureTomek]

This is a game changer! Do it and let me know what you think.

[@gordonborsboom7460]

@AdventureTomek I was also wondering if the rest of the CP2 engines or bikes have the same issue. I have never heard this come up before rhis video. If not, are their return springs set different or all together a different spring

[@AdventureTomek]

@@gordonborsboom7460 no one wants to admit there hand hurts

[@RCworksvids]

I have put in many full days on the T7. The bike has a few weird little issues but I've never had an issue with the throttle.

[@AdventureTomek]

Maybe I just need to hit the gym 😂.

[@nickg2431]

@@AdventureTomek I dont know if you need to hit the gym but i do push ups and squats 4-5 times a week,this got rid of the wrist pain that i sometimes felt on my enduro bikes together with a slightly fatter grip than an enduro style.Happy trails with your Tenere!

[@Mike-xb3bv]

I've changed the throttle tube out to lessen the rotation. Doing this as well would work okay or not?

[@AdventureTomek]

It will work fine

[@nickg2431]

It will work well but be careful ,too much power if you make the throttle like 1/4 turn or something

[@Angry-Lynx]

Throttle lock?

[@AdventureTomek]

I would still recommend this spring hack. Very easy to change back to stock position if you are not happy with it.

what's the purpose of mixing music with your speech ?

Can you not hear what I was saying in the video?? Might be my editor program, not as loud until the video gets rendered.
