Yamaha T700 Ténéré Suspension Kit

The Yamaha Ténéré 700 is a capable adventure bike, but its suspension benefits greatly from targeted upgrades. At Teknik Motorsport, both our fork and shock valving kits are developed in house. They’re the result of ongoing R&D, rider feedback, and real-world adventure testing — not generic, off-the-shelf solutions.

Our recommended starting point is a fork valving kit combined with the correct rear spring for your weight. From there, you can add further upgrades such as a shock valving kit, fork springs, or service parts to tailor the bike to your terrain, luggage, and riding style. Every component has been proven in the field through our testing partnership with RideADV, ensuring performance where it matters most.

Riders trust us for these upgrades because the results are proven — our many 5-star Google reviews reflect the confidence and satisfaction of customers who have transformed their bikes with Teknik suspension.

  • In-house developed fork and shock valving kits, refined through real-world testing

  • Rear spring matched to your weight for better balance and comfort

  • Fork springs optional, depending on rider weight and style

  • Premium springs sourced from the Netherlands and USA, with seals and oils to complete the setup

  • Backed by Teknik’s expertise and 5-star Google reviews

With this foundation, your T7 will handle more predictably, ride more comfortably, and stay composed no matter how far your adventure takes you.

How to Build Your Kit

The $0.99 price is for the empty box. From there, you add the components you want to create your own custom Yamaha T700 suspension kit.

  • Start with the fork valving kit and rear spring for the biggest improvement

  • Add a shock valving kit for increased rear control and consistency

  • Include fork springs if your weight or style requires them

  • Finish with seals, oils, and service items for reliability and long-term performance

Each selection updates your total, so you only pay for what you choose. Build it simple or go all in — either way, you’ll have a suspension package tailored to you.
