Yamaha Tenere 700 Everything I Have Upgraded

[@pastrie42]

I commented in another video that it would be helpful to see a full list of upgrades. Well, I watched a bunch of your videos and here I am. Haha. Thank you so much for your videos man. It's exactly the content i've been looking for.

[@AdventureTomek]

Thanks! Happy to hear you are enjoying the content 🍻

[@mrbjay5443]

The Camel One-Finger Clutch is a must. Great, essential part as is the Rear "Break Fix"! Changed my bike.

[@jasonclark4949]

That's funny - I also commented on another video about how great it would be to know what you've done to your T7 and thankfully I came across this video. Thank you again for your great content and excellent and unbiased approach to reviews, we appreciate it.

[@AdventureTomek]

Thank you really appreciate the comment.

[@pmdrolet]

To avoid your air filter to be dirty just at the end of the plastic tube, cut by about half of an inch the tip of that plastic tube for a better air flow. And better than that, just get a pre-filer, so easy to maintenance and clean

[@bjwilliams6115]

Mold a piece of kydex to fill the hole left by raising the wind screen. Made a world of difference

[@jayhopkins1337]

Yes we got cheezed on the short travel compared to some other D,p bikes. Now they have the extreme models, with longer travel and so much can be done about weight my opinion should have been done yes ago. They came out in 2018 I think

[@mikeskidmore6754]

If you can afford a roll of Duct Tape you can tape off the turn signal hole in the hand guards

[@theadventurousrider]

That is a good bit of work you've done. I really like the crash bars and how they protect all that up top like that. I can see how your talking about the shifting if a hard enough hit though. Hopefully you get a lot of use out of it this year!

[@AdventureTomek]

Right, I finally want to ride the damn bike

[@darinperry8777]

excellent advise im buying a t7 soon. THX

[@AdventureTomek]

Thank you 🍻

[@MagicAyrtonforever]

My french friend just bought a T700 extreme and I think he was complaining about the clutch so I'll let him know about the mod you did, thanks.

[@AdventureTomek]

Its a must on the bike

[@Jonathan-ez8tq]

I am french and have a T7 extreme too, be careful the camel one finger clutch doesn’t mount if you have the yamaha oem crashbars, you need a shorter version because it touches it. I got mine on aliexpress for 15 bucks and works great.

[@allenhuling598]

Nice list, and all nice upgrades! I have a bunch of stuff from Camel ADV.....would like more!! Asked you about those Ride-It levers on an earlier video, still need to make that happen! Ride hard....ride safe!!🤘

[@2-Wheel-Explorer]

I had the same fear about the front crash bar mount under the headlight so I ditched the crash bars for aftermarket plastics and mounted bags directly to the plastics

[@AdventureTomek]

I may go that route, was considering the RTech Plastic kit

[@elel712]

Great job and nice video

[@AdventureTomek]

Thank you!

[@MaxwellBenson80]

Your rear tire looks badass on the t7!

[@AdventureTomek]

I’m happy with, probably the most affordable ADV tire on the market currently

[@downbytheriver501]

If you’re going to upgrade your seat at some point, take a look at the Sargent seats. They’re well worth the money! And when/if you upgrade to full exhaust, HP corse full titanium is the bees knees. Crazy how much weight savings there is and got the full exhaust (headers and all) for under $750 I think?

[@AdventureTomek]

I was looking into a full system. Have you had to return the ECU?

[@downbytheriver501]

@@AdventureTomek I haven’t but have been tempted to. Although I haven’t noticed any difference whatsoever power wise. Ran the whole IDBDR last year no hiccups whatsoever! But I would be willing to bet if I reflashed the ECU, I’d probably squeeze another 5-10hp or so outta the motor.

[@Booki89]

Awesome video mate!

[@AdventureTomek]

[@AdventureTomek]

Its a cheap one off AliExpress...l sounds pretty decent and holding up well for a $40 can

[@nastysoda9212]

Nice bike. Just an FYI, aluminum footpegs are a horrible idea, alluminum does not bend, it snaps off. You could have microscopic fractures in those footpegs and someday they will jsut snap off, could kill you. Always use oem steel or titanium footpegs.

have you tried the rhinowalk bags with motoes racks? any photos? thank you :)

[@AdventureTomek]

I have not had a chance yet, have been swamped with real life work. Fingers crossed I’ll get to do a MotoCamp trip here soon.

[@black_widow_overland]

Very nice video. I’m thinking of getting a T7. It’s tempting

[@pinkiewerewolf]

I've had a few ADV bikes and tried to modify a KLX 300, and currently a Husky 501, I highly recommend the T-7. Recently got the T-7 and I'm selling my 890 Adventure S and possibly the 501.

[@black_widow_overland]

@@pinkiewerewolf I currently have a klr650 and a Harley Davidson street glide. Thinking of trading in the Street Glide and getting a T7. Love my klr650. Be nice to have a more highway friendly adv bike. How's the t7 do on highways (70-80mph) wanting something I can take from the highways.. to dirt tracks.

[@pinkiewerewolf]

@@black_widow_overland The T7 is a great bike for pavement to trail riding. I have a 2018 KLR 650 that I’ve been modding and I had a Gen 1 for a while, the T7 is better in both scenarios, dirt or road, though the Gen 1 KLR isn’t bad on the dirt with some mods but nowhere as good on the road. On the highway I feel like a right lane rider on the KLR, even the Gen 2, but the T7 is very capable, even in the SF Bay traffic. The only thing the T7 could use is a bit more fuel capacity and a cruise control. I have a 2017 Ultra Classic, the T7 and KLR are no match for that on long distance two-up trips.

[@piotrknapczyk103]

Super zrobiłeś swój motocykl.

[@AdventureTomek]

Thank you

[@zl2848]

If the suspension is fully compressed, does the link guard hit the link itself??

[@AdventureTomek]

Good question... I don't believe it does

[@pinkiewerewolf]

Your T-7 is looking mean! Love the Camel ADV parts. I'm gathering a bunch of their products for my T-7. If someone has a first Gen 890 Adventure, the Camel ADV Neck Brace is a mandatory piece of kit to stabilize/reinforce the headlight/windshield cluster. Their skid plate was sold out , so I'm going to give Molecule Motorsports a go. I don't think I'll end up going with a full exhaust system but I think I will go with the high pipe to protect the swingarm.

[@AdventureTomek]

Keep an eye out for upcoming video, I ordered the cheapest high mid pipe off Ali Express. $95. Just to see if it’s worth anyone’s time.

[@pinkiewerewolf]

@@AdventureTomek I’ll definitely be watching for that one. 👍

[@ryanbox30]

Another great video, thanks Tomek. I have a question tho. I currently have a 2014 KTM 1190 Adventure (non-R) and I love it. But... I recently started thinking about trading this bike in on an 2019/2020 Yamaha T7. This mostly because I want to start riding some offroad bits (still mostly onroad tho) and doing trips down parts of the "Trans European Trail (TET)" . Since you own both of these bikes, which would you recommend for a beginner like me? Is the Yammie decent when riding on road? Would it be a good idea to take my beautifull KTM offroad as a novice offroader? I would like to hear your thoughts on this.

[@AdventureTomek]

The 1190 is a much more comfortable long distance bike for riding highway. I would say take the 1190 on some light off road trails and see how you feel. Personally I feel much more confident in more technical/challenging terrain when riding the T7.

[@Leokyriacou14]

Is there any video of the installation of the turn signals how did you install them ? Thanks :)

[@AdventureTomek]

I don't believe I do.... but here is a decent link one kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZmSzmYaPacylfKc

[@jonathanlancaster9858]

What storage stands would you recommend for the t7?

[@AdventureTomek]

I don’t have any, sorry

[@dolbydarma]

Any issues with the quad lock and your iPhone? I’ve read the T7 and MT07 eat phones regardless of what mount you use?

[@AdventureTomek]

I’m pretty sure my camera is becoming defective. I might upgrade and just keep the new one off my bars

[@90lindauer]

You know that factory skid plate is almost $500. I had one quoted when a Tacoma hit me and had to have my bike repaired. Insane!

[@AdventureTomek]

Thats crazy!

[@nevesdanger]

I have a 2023 model and its full LED stock. I don't get it.

[@AdventureTomek]

Are you outside the USA, we did not get the updated bike until 2024 here

[@AdventureTomek]

Might need to search someone in your area that sells the product

[@bajamedic]

Nice whip!

[@AdventureTomek]

Indeed! Thanks for watching 🍻

[@Nine_883]

Coming from a FZ09 I thought the T7 clutch and throttle was smooth as hell. If you ever owned and FZ09 you would definitely know what I mean.

[@AdventureTomek]

I’ll have to test ride one someday. As much as I miss more sporty street style bikes I’ll probably stick to ADV bikes… getting old sucks.

[@Nine_883]

@@AdventureTomek they don’t make an FZ09 anymore and most people get the twitchy throttle flashed out of the ECU. Mine was never flashed. It ran like a striped ape, but the throttle and clutch was always ready to jump off the line. Hooligan bike.

[@diggy-d8w]

I don't even own a bike & I like your approach..... go figure? I'm really looking to buy very soon & the Rally 300L is what I'm looking at closely. Hell, you may change my mind? We shall see..... peace

Really interest in the 800x Rally they have coming to the market.

I think Kove is hopefully going to bring new life into the “what you get for your money” game in this industry. Jap bikes have been stale for a long time.

*chinese* race spec suspension.

[@jakeviolet2195]

What's the difference between budget suspension and Chinese race spec suspension? The words "race spec" on their marketing materials (probably spelled incorrectly.) Besides, even if a bike did come with race-spec suspension, who would want that? Real race bike suspension is stiff, unforgiving, has to be custom tuned to each individual rider, and sucks for adventure riding or anything other than racing... Duh!

[@FerCrook]

Nice bro

[@AdventureTomek]

Thank you!

[@peterpeter-o8g]

[@john0270]

THE REAR BRAKE. Just bleed the system, use a vacuum tool and pump the brakes until you push atleast a couple resivors of volume through it with both vacuum and petal action

[@AdventureTomek]

It’s nothing do with the brake fluid/line. It is the design of the brake pedal.

[@john0270]

@AdventureTomek You sure about that bud? I have indpected/ serviced more than a few, and they all have massive amounts of air in the system. The short throw lever might mask the issue.... but your brakes are in an unsafe condition still. Bleeding the air out makes the rear brake feel like you would expect. if you have any experience with bikes you get on one of these and immediately think wtf.

[@AdventureTomek]

@@john0270 before buying the new piece, I did bleed the rear brake line. The new brake pedal in my option is a massive improvement. Ride one with a Camel ADV brake fix and let me know what you think.
