  • In this video we are solving a common issue of the Yamaha Tenere 700, the jerky/snappy/choppy throttle. The fix does not eliminate the problem completely but does substantially improve it.

    Hey man, thanks for posting this - incredibly useful. I had a super slacky cable throttle on my T7 and this got it squared away. Subscribed.

    Correct me if I’m wrong: TBW (throttle by wire) = electronic type. The T7 employs a throttle by CABLE.

      No worries man )) when I switched from NC750X with TBW to a 310GS with cable actuated trottle I couldn’t believe how loosen the latter was. Once it got fixes (within 3min) life became so much better! T7 will be my next bike ))

    Thank you for posting this video, I had a really slack throttle cable on my new Tenere World Raid, I tightened it as per your video and the bike's throttle is so much smoother, no on off anymore. There is less room on the world Raid but it is still pretty easy.

    I have to thank you for that. Was sceptical but adjusted it so that the cam is seated at closed throttle through the full steering range, plus a little slack. Great result, snatch all but eliminated. Not carburettor smooth but damn close.

    if your motorcycle jerks you should install fuel dongle. will improve the operation in the low RPM range enriching the mixture.

    I made a similar video for my 701 which is pretty jerky too, especially having a single that big. Installed a fuel dongle which helped a lot, but you know what helped the most? Just riding the bike and getting used to it. Great video, enjoy your bike!

    • @gravelroadslovenia
      @gravelroadslovenia  Před 2 lety +2

      The dongle is something I have also heard of. Some opt for a whole new ECU which makes the bike a whole different beast. I will leave it like this for now though!

    i too have that issue with the mechanic. Every time I send for oil change they would check the air pressure adjust the chain slack. That's part of their service but I don't understand why they over tighten it way beyond what the manual says and the tire pressure instead of 29psi they pump up to 36psi 😮😮

    Those bolts are nuts. Don’t back off the axle nut so much, a little friction will help.
    It’s a cable throttle, throttle by wire is electronic

      Maybe try a bike with electronic throttle and you will feel the difference. Unless Yamaha has fixed it for the 2022 model year with a different ECU map.

  • @tillfrers2112
    @tillfrers2112 Před 5 měsíci

    The chain tension might be too tight now. The chain should not be pushed down all the time while messaering. It should only be pushed down once and then the messarument can happen. In the end you want to have arround 20mm play while the chain is under the most tenssion. This occours if the pivot point for the swing arm ind the wheel axle are aligned. This video show the process pretty well

    Have you read the manual properly? It does not say that the free play should be 0.3-0.5mm, in fact it says 3-5mm. That free play is there for your safety, has always been on all bikes.

    • @gravelroadslovenia
      @gravelroadslovenia  Před 2 lety

      You are correct, I have not noticed it was said wrong in the video, but what I meant was 3-5 mm as in the manual, thanks!
      About the amount of free play, it is true what you are saying. Having 7 mm in comparison to 3 mm of throttle play makes a very noticeable difference when riding, and as mentioned in the video and the user manual, some play should always be left in the throttle.
      Thanks for your concern! 😄

    The T7 is NOT 'throttle by wire'. Throttle by wire means electronic. The T7 is a cable throttle. Also the chain slack should be measured with the bike vertical, NOT on the side stand but on its wheels upright. Yes, it makes a difference.

    • @gravelroadslovenia
      @gravelroadslovenia  Před 2 lety +2

      Apologies for the wording mistake in the video, cable throttle is what I meant. Thanks for the remark! 😄
      It is said that it should be measured on the side-stand in the manual… (1.26 min in video) I guess opinions vary here 😅
