Suspension Change on Benelli Imperiale 400

[@benzeneme2159]

Thankyou. I own a Benelli imperialle too and thought of searching to change rear twin shocks and got it from you.

[@tombartram7384]

Putting on good quality shocks can totally transform a bike. Great vid, thanks!

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Absolutely, I'm deadset on changing the shocks after the bike refusing to lean on a busy highway, glad I did!

[@cycoklr]

Don't forget to check your chain slack. Changing shocks to different lengths alters the setting of the chain -- shortening will tighten it, lengthening will loosen it.

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Thanks bud, checked the slacks and it was fine.

[@cycoklr]

@@littlebigadventure3076 👍

[@soren5801]

whats a chain slack

[@cycoklr]

@@soren5801 The looseness or tightness of the drive chain. The same happens when you change sprocket size.

[@aboyzeroeight]

Shortening will loosen it, lengthened shocks will tigthen.. 😊

[@lowiedelatorre840]

What length of shock did you use?

[@aboyzeroeight]

What rear shocks are those?

[@nglenn70]

Hi, can I know what new shocks are you using and where you got them from?

[@leehart1498]

What is the size of the rear tire? It looks nice on that bike.

[@littlebigadventure3076]

It looks great but I won't recommend, its 5.00 size and its so big its rubbing the fender.

[@shankybhaivlogs]

Gear shifting problem facing how to get rid of this problem...pls help bro

[@rickypinpinmd]

What brand of rear shocks did you use?

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Hi bro , it’s no brand I ordered from taobao, if you really want a brand , you can look for JSMT suspension. It’s quite a bit of upgrade compare to stock , preload and rebound adjustable

[@kapitanbudoy]

how did you remove the steel on the side of the rear tire for saddle bags?

[@littlebigadventure3076]

It's bolted onto the rear frame and the rear fender, use a hex screw to remove all the bolts and you'll slide it off.

[@peternguyen4969]

Hi! Can you share the detail model of the suspension that you apply for? Thanks

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Hello, the name is really OEM, called ISMT, its 315mm and has adjustable rebound.

[@FernandoLavezzi]

ottimo.!

[@judahmclelland2324]

What handlebars have you got on the bike?

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Just standard "medium" height handlebar I got from online.

[@marekzaporowski9667]

Hi, rear tyre is 4.5x18 inch :-)?

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Hey there, its 5.00 x 18inch , its wayyy to big for this suspension. Rubbing fenders makes me sad.

[@ishansharma5352]

Which handle bar

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Hey there, just a black handlebar I got that is higher than the stock one. Its quite easy to install so try it out!

[@mantapakabu74]

dude. what suspension brand you use?

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Hello, the name is called ISMT, very China, its 315mm and has adjustable rebound.

[@napadaanlng69]

hello so the shocks you replaced is lower than the first rear shock you removed?

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Hey, the shocks are 310mm, original is 345mm, my last shock as shown in the video are about 315mm, it's dead due to the weight of the bike, it's not fit for duty.

[@napadaanlng69]

@@littlebigadventure3076 Right. Thank you very much.

[@3xk890]

Bro, i changed my suspension to a shorter one too...but i am having trouble to use the side stand, its a lot heavier now. any tips?

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Use your hips to jack up the bike from side position, don't try to use your arm to straighten the bike from the handlebar, I twisted my wrist that way.

[@3xk890]

@@littlebigadventure3076 hey sorry i meant using the "Center stand".. my bad haha

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Haha , use your body weight to stand on the stand peg, then jack it while pulling the bike from the rear handlebar, not the front handlebar.

[@3xk890]

@@littlebigadventure3076 yes, still my 60kg body couldnt lift it hahaha

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Just have some practice, it's more about the technique than brute force , remember to make sure both the peg is on the ground, if it's only 1 peg touching, it's going to be extra hard to lift it.

[@ngshinong9812]

May I know what tyre are you using?

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Hey there, its xinqi retro , works ok , not very confident on the bends, but looks real good. Will change to proper tyre on next change.

[@pravinpurbiya9471]

Hey may I know suspension r from which brand

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Hi bro , it’s no brand I ordered from taobao, if you really want a brand , you can look for JSMT suspension. It’s quite a bit of upgrade compare to stock , preload and rebound adjustable

[@ishansharma5352]

Exhaust name pls

[@littlebigadventure3076]

It's a universal exhaust pipe, "megaphone" if you need the keyword.

[@belus-jp6pc]

Nie rozumiem języka. Gdybyś zechciał napisać po co zmieniałeś te amortyzatory byłbym wdzięczny. Dziękuję i pozdrawiam z Polski!

[@jakubtopa4444]

amortyzatory zmienił ponieważ były zepsute, nie amortyzowały.

[@silviobenetello3471]

Hello, what are the names of the tires you mount?

[@littlebigadventure3076]

It's a chinese tyre, not recommended as its too thick and eats the fender.

[@MultiThunder1234]

I was wondering why your bike looks so good, I usually don't like looking at the Imperiale then I realised that you actually changed that hideous stock exhaust that's really ugly, nice eye man.

[@littlebigadventure3076]

Thanks bud, it also shave like 4kg from stock, good upgrade for anyone. The stock pea shooter while looks nice its too big for the sleek looking bike. Yuck
