Adventure riding can often require chain maintenance or removal of the rear wheel in the field, a daunting task with the side stand. Make it a much simpler undertaking with the AltRider Aluminum Center Stand for the Yamaha Tenere 700.
AltRider offers the only aluminum center stand for the Tenere 700. Not only is the AltRider design lighter than any of the steel center stands offered by Yamaha or other aftermarket vendors, but the deployment arm close to the swing arm. It’s still easy to access with your boots but it won’t’ strike your leg when putting your foot down like other stands with a wide deployment arm can.
With the reduced weight the AltRider Aluminum Center Stand will stay off the ground, even when riding over rough terrain. It’s one of the easiest center stands to deploy and has an extremely stable platform that won’t roll off until you’re ready.
Center stand allows easy maintenance and wheel removal
Robust and lightweight design manufactured from 6061 Aluminum struts
Center stand weighs 44% less weight than OEM center stand
Weighs only 7 lbs. (3.17 kg) total with hardware and brackets
Mounts to OEM locations with provided hardware
Finished in a durable black textured powder coat
The aluminum stand is resistant to rust and weathering
All hardware and brackets included

Installation is simple with included hardware and does not require any modification to the motorcycle. The design ensures ease of use without sacrificing ground clearance or cornering ability. The center stand is available in a durable textured powder coat black finish.
A spring puller is included to make installing the spring a breeze.

The stand looks great, do you know if this fits a T7 World raid with standard skid plate? and how easy is it to get the bike on the stand if used with your adjustable lowering links?

[@AltRiderLLC]

Yes, as long as the OEM center stand fits, then our center stand will fit. Also, our aluminum center stand is the easiest stand I've used to get the bike up on the stand. So if the bike is lowered, it will take more effort, but its still very reasonable.

Do you need to remove everything to change oil with the AltRider skid plate?

[@AltRiderLLC]

The skid plate needs to removed to change the oil, but you can leave the brackets on - which makes reinstallation considerably easier. You don't need to remove the center stand for an oil change

Question: By placing the thrust washer and the spacer of the Center Stand on the inside of the the stand it will not provide any spacing. If it is placed on the outside it will. Am I mistaken?

[@AltRiderLLC]

The spacers are only for the bracket that is attached to the bike. The thrust washer (one big washer) is always placed on the inside of the center stand hangers. It is your choice (based on how it fits on your bike) to place the thrust washer on the left or right hanger of your center stand. So based on which side you place the thrust washer it will push your center stand to one side or the other by a mm or two.

Do you make one for the 1200 super tenere?

[@AltRiderLLC]

Not for the Super Tenere, but I'll add your request to our list!
