Yamaha Tenere 700 Lowered 6 cms by Hyperpro retaining the full suspension

We compare our Yamaha Tenere 700 next to each other. Both bikes has the same modifications. The white T7 is lowered 6 cms with Hyperpro fron springs and rear links and the lower OEM saddle. The driver has lenght of 165 cms and inseam of 75 cms. The blue one has standard hight.
Detailed zoom with the result.

Thank you for the video! I just bought a 2023 Tenere and am short like your wife so I've been searching for ways to lower the bike.

[@sachinsachin8007]

Well done. No other videos have been down in comparison - I am intending to get t700 - I am 165. This is so helpful. Thanks much

[@Impact_Creativity]

As I have the same exact height, any updates my friend?

[@--abhi-]

same here. 166 and in love with tenere 700. How was your experiecne.???? I am even planning to swap the stock wheels so a 17 and 18 with same pirelli rally str tires giving me extra 1 or 2 inches for adventure riding and then also a set of 17 and 17 super moto set up for every day city riding.

[@TheSharkypeto]

I have ridden about 200km (mostly 2nd class roads and highway) with Hyperpro front springs installed and must confirm that the improvement of bike stability (planted and sure footed) as well as the ability to absorb small bumps and fork dive (when braking) is on much higher level. Safer to ride and more fun due to a better feedback. Best upgrade for the money. Definitely recommended.

[@SmartRiderBob]

Thanks! Very clear! Just lowered my T7 although I'm 178cm, just to help me when off-road becomes challenging

[@raxovitch]

Are you standing on both feet when you are on the street ?

[@davidedalfonso3255]

Thanks for the video! My stature is 1.65 cm. I am in love with the Tenere 700 and was giving up on this dream due to the height. On the internet I saw the possibility of replacing the original springs with those of the HYPERPRO, but I could not find any reviews. Not even the dealers have found the solution. I will often travel as a couple with my partner and I will not do challenging off road. Thanks and good way! I subscribed to your channel! :-) :-) :-)

[@anoukduboisbe]

Never give up on the dream! I'm a girl of 1.57cm and also dreaming of a Tenere 700, we'll get there if we want it enough 😁

Has any of you tried it yet?

Thank you sir , im 1.60 cm after show ur video I have a confident to get this bike thank you

Thank you guys :)

[@markvaughn8096]

Great Comparison Video .................... So to clarify all the changes to Janny's T7............. 1 - You moved the front forks UP the triple clamp ( HOW MUCH IS NOW EXPOSED - 25 cm - 1 inch ) .......... 2 - You changed the front springs to Hyperpro springs ( WHAT PART NUMBER ? )............. 3 - you installed Hyper Pro Rear Links ( HOW LONG? ) AND you changed the seat to a lower saddle ................ I will shorten both Center and Side stand to fit............

[@OumboukTravelAdventures]

It is the lowering set of Hyperpro they used our bikes as sample as we had the first. When you surch on hyperpro website you will find it.

[@davidmallia628]

I was wondering about Touratech (made by Hyperbro suspensions, of Holland, for Touratech)lowering spring, with lowering link. If I am correct, these springs keep the bike at the same height but, with weight, compress easily at first, but thereafter become, progressively, stiffer for the same performance as the standard. springs. It lowers the bike by 35mm, with no adjustment of the front fork clamping. With lowering seat you can obtain another 20mm to a total of 55mm, lowering the tenere700 to 820mm, from 875mm. Touratech even claims enhanced performance, over the standard. Has anyone experience of this?

[@lemoinexavier]

Top, great !

[@tahirsharif9461]

Thanks - good to see this option for riders with a shorter inseam. Did you also swap out the side stand? I did lowered links but the OEM side stand now keeps the bike too upright. Trying to fit the Rally Raid lowered side stand, but the centre stand is preventing me from doing it, will need to remove the left side so that I can get to the rear hex key bolts on the side stand.

[@OumboukTravelAdventures]

We cut the side stand and shortend it and welded the standfeet back.

Thanks for the great video. I have a question regarding the moto with the lowering links. Which brand center stand do you have on it and is there any difficulty getting it up on the center stand since it now has been lowered?

[@OumboukTravelAdventures]

Thanks for comment. The center stand is OEM Yamaha. With this lowering it is bit more difficult but one person can do it.

Should be same as Touratech kit?? If you maintained full suspension, should not the height stance, except when sitting on the bike, remained the same?? Why Is the bike, visibly, significantly lower, with out rider sitting on the bike??

The bike is lowered with still full suspension

[@davidmallia628]

@@OumboukTravelAdventures yes,but why is it visibly lower when compared to the standard bike. Without a rider sitting on the bikes, they should be of same height. Then when someone sits on the one with progressive lowering springs, then the bike will sit lower, and not without rider

[@josh53sharp]

Did you fit the lower links yourself after the bike had the OEM centre stand? I've just ordered the lowering links from Rally Raid (£20 whereas OEM are £70) and I can see the OEM centre stand needs removing before you can remove the bolts from the standard links. I think I saw a video of you removing the whole shock/spring but wonder whether removing the whole centre stand might be easier (4 bolts - 2 each side and don't have to remove the springs!). Rally Raid just suggest sliding the front forks through the triple clamps by 10mm to balance both ends.

[@OumboukTravelAdventures]

Thanks for your reply. You can also remove the center stand. Then your shock can stay on. We lowered front 2 cm to be in balance. But that was done by the shock expert.

[@josh53sharp]

@@OumboukTravelAdventures Thanks for that. I had to smile when I watched the video as both my wife and I ride our own bikes. Gill currently has a Tiger 800 but is keen to swop. She did want a Multistrada 950 but even with the lower seat it was too tall and she is 170cm. Ducati are losing a lot of sales. She might buy a KTM 890 Adv although I don’t think the build quality is as good as the Yamaha. I am also 170cm which is why I need the low seat and probably the lowering links too. What other bikes have you had? I previously had an Africa Twin and before that a Multistrada 1200. Height was no problem with low seats.
