test of tenere 700 after suspension upgrade

[@iangriffiths9930]

That bike looks amazing!

[@gregb6166]

Is there more to this than you riding through puddles and screen shots??? Did I miss a review??? What did you do? Parts replaced? Any improvements? Suspension helpless no matter what's done?

replaced with adreani cartidges much more compliant but still a little soft for me

[@BackHurtsBad]

@@minkyhead I knew the Adreani reduces travel to 180? Are those reworked from someone else?

Hi. Im 125kg gear and small lugage. Do You think that 90nm spring wont be to hard??? 90nm rally raid spring. To fit front suspension spacers do i need to remove fork or just losen top clamp and open the cups. Bike elevated

[@minkyhead]

hi i used a 95nm im similar in full gear and the sag was ok ..90nm should be ok with little luggage ...i had the shock revalved at kaise and its not much better tobo its in now at firefox racing and they are making me a yss to order circa 330 quid ..hopfully that will be good ive severel bikes with yss on and they are light years better than that thing should have it this week ...spacers are easy take caps loose drop the bike on a jack and you should be able to insert them easy if you let the handlebars go and suspend them ...i put andriani cartaidges in but they are only up to roadwork tbo much plusher ...ive sacked the t7 off road and stick to me 300s ...am enjoying now as a grand tourer and fireroad type stuff .. dissapointed in the o/e suspennsion its very very poor imho .... aswome bike in a lot of ways but they dropped thye ball when they valved the shockkers big time ..keep well

Hello, a 59s video without commenting on your feelings and without giving any indication of the various changes, it's a shame !!

[@davidroberts7490]

I suppose that bike is better suited for big guys like you👍 How about the gearbox, is it as smooth as your Rally's ?

[@minkyhead]

different beast can ride most stuff in third rally is much better trail bike tbo

@@minkyhead thats very interesting to hear ! I am always amazed at what mine can do 🙂

[@minkyhead]

@@davidroberts7490 its pretty capable ive seen first hand some lads hussle em on preper hard tracks ..it is tbo abit too big for me to do real hard stuff on and the front suspension is not great ...i bought it as a grand tourer more than a trail bike ,,its to replace me vee strom rather than the crfs ...but put it on the right track open and flowing its a proper fun bike .... can roost it in 4th gear on demand at 50/60mph .... he he braaaaaap

@@minkyhead I am thinking about a Moto Guzzi v85 tt as a grand tourer. I sat on one in a show room a few days ago. They are a lot more compact than I realised. Online photos don't do them justice. Want to organise a test ride first though.

[@davidroberts7490]

Is that a Linear spring you fitted to the mono ?

[@minkyhead]

95nm linier better
