Hi! super congrats for video, May you said me if you have used NGK Iridium LMAR8BI-9 ?? May you said me the specific NGK model detail? thaaaankssssss

Franco Acerbis products are amazing!

Well done.

Uff thats not a thing of 10 Minutes :D Thanks for the Video

Never never showed what to do with the original vent pipe?

Thank you, that was great! 🎉

Fantastic!! From Australia!!

Impossible to service front bearing with center stand installed Note linkage not removed

Really good!

Thanks for the info, is the wifey happy with the handling of the T7 after lowering ? did it perform ok after loading it up with weight ?

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 so helpful

Greetings from philippines. How about the side stand did you change it? If yes? What brand is that?

Have you lowered your folks and fitting the acerbis 23ltr tank will the handle bars be hitting the tank

Top, great !

Can u send the link for the spark plugs? There is alot of choices i get confused

Thank you for helpfull video.

Hello, can you give me the link where I can buy the short side stand, thank you.

Nicely done! Howdy from Texas. Thanks

Thank you for the tip to clean the tank.

thank you, helped so much

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

Im curious, You still riding the T7's? Would it not be easier to buy VStrom 250's?

Sei stata Molllto utile, grazie

Thank you! I think with my 1.75cm standart t700 - 👍👍👍

One question please. Did it lower back with a spring change or just a link change? And a second question. Has the bike been lowered just to the saddle height or has the engine also been lowered? Thanks

The Acerbis tank looks like a very good solution. Lighter weight, roughly the same external dimensions as the factory unit, and substantially more capacity. Cheers

How long would you say it takes from start until finish?

Looks very easy compared to y old KTM 1190 adventure 😂

How did you empty the gas after cleaning the new tank?

Hi, can you post a link to the products?

I am impressed…but sh!t what a process 😳

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??

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?

maybe a stupid question but do you consider inseam from crotch to the floor or until the end of the the ankle?

Thanks for posting. I install mine tomorrow. I also bought the locking cap but hear they are very problematic. Any thoughts on the locking cap? I am leaning towards using the vented cap it came with. Thanks for any feedback.

Following my previous comment and for anyone contemplating doing this: I have a small but quite well equipped workshop and with a lap top on my work bench, got set into the task of my plug swap. I followed this tutorial step by step and you can be assured that every necessary step is covered. I just have to say that I found the HT coils a lot harder to remove than Oumbouk Travel man did and had to make a little lasso from 6mm nylon rope so's I could wiggle the coil with my right hand while pulling upwards on the rope from the top. Also, I found getting the cable holder removed then, later, back in place was a real fiddle. All that being said though, this is a 1st class set of instructions and I recommend Oumbouk Travel Adventures method compared to some others that I considered on CZcams.

Easy to follow covering every aspect of the procedure. Thanks! Saved me a lot of trial (and error)

Amigo! Excelente video. Gracias. Saludos desde Durango México 🇲🇽

Thank you so much for sharing thi

Vielen Dank für das Zeigen. Da werde ich etwas Zeit einplanen müssen.

Usefull tutorial. Thanks!

The T7 is already a pretty top heavy bike, does this worsen the situation?

This is nothing. Some years back my buddy called me to help him change plugs on his Kawasaki Z800e. Turned out the whole engine had to be lowered from the frame to access the plugs! In the end he took it to the dealership to do it. Some engineering geniuses there at Kawasaki

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.

Very nice video, what is the rider’s height?

All nice and stuff, but what about rebuilding the bike? Would have been nice to show that as well.

One little problem, you have to lub the bolts too. Even though the bushing (bus, as you called them) do not rotate around the bolt, water can get in there and rust the bolts. I have seen it happen myself on my friend's T7, and there are videos in you tube that shows rusted bolts. I'll put a link to a video that shows the rusted bolts. Go to 7:52 on that video to see the rusted bolts. A little but of grease on the bolt's body reduces or prevents rust. You place the grease on the bolt, not the inside of the bushing. If you lub the inside of the bushing, when you push the bolt through the threats will end up with grease on them. Not good! You want the threats to be 100% oil and grease free so that when you torque the bolts the friction between the bolt's threats and the threats in the nuts is enough to prevent the nuts from losing. Which is the main part about torquing things. Plus you can over torque things since the friction between those two surfaces is reduced. In essence, you md up with a false torque reading. Well, that is if you are one of those persons (like me) that like to do things correctly and by the book and actually use torque wrenches. Anyway, The point is to lub the bolt body and then push them through. I've also noticed how many people lub the bushings of the link arms and so on, but never lub the swing arm too. When I did this service on my T7, I also remove the swing arm to clean and lub it. Might has well, you have everything else off. By the way, I liked how you called your wife (I assume that's your wife) your assistant. 😂 Cute! Rusted volts video: czcams.com/video/2mpFs_4Z-aE/video.html

I installed this yesterday, filled the Acerbis and rode around just a little bit. I am noticing some condensation building on the outsides of the bank - it's vapor and smells of gas. I can't find other people saying this same thing. Is this normal?

Dag meneer. Heb namelijk een vraag voel je ook eindigen verschil tussen de oude tank in de nieuwe tank qua als je stopt bij de stoplicht bijvoorbeeld...

Hi. Do you have any experiences if there will be fuel left in the sides pockets so that the fuel pump isn't able to run the tank dry? Greetings, Stefan.
