The Touratech Suspension EVO shock for the Yamaha Ténéré 700 focuses on maximum performance in extreme conditions. The new piston design of the shock absorber has made it possible to optimize the oil flow behavior. Even at higher damping frequencies, such as during fast trail riding, oil foaming is prevented. In this way, the damping behavior of the shock absorber Touratech Suspension EVO remains absolutely constant over a wide load spectrum. In addition, the new low-friction seal of the enormous 16 mm piston rod has extremely low friction values, resulting in exceptionally low breakaway torque and responsive response. Annoying shocks, also known as slip-stick effect, are foreign to EVO shocks. These characteristics guarantee the best traction, stability and comfort in all conditions.
Easy situational setting and balance adjustment
The especially robust "EVO Preload Adjuster" guarantees simple and quick adjustment of the motorcycle's balance to the respective load condition - solo rides, or rides with a companion plus lots of luggage. The spring preload can be easily adjusted in a wide range of settings to a comparatively low operating pressure by means of the large, easy-to-grip handwheel.
Damping
In line with the simple spring preload, this high-end shock has the best rebound adjustment ever made on a motorcycle shock absorber. Precise coordination results in optimum tire-to-ground contact without unpleasant vibrations or rear end sag, ensuring maximum riding dynamics and the highest level of safety.
Compression damping can be adjusted in a wide range of settings. Without the need for tools, even those with less experience can make individual and reproducible settings that take into account damping at high and low speeds.
Robust settings Touratech for difficult conditions
Thanks to the special configuration Touratech, the EVO suspension elements for the Yamaha Ténéré 700 are suitable "out of the box" for off-road use, even with a high payload.
Long Life serviceable components
Like all suspension components from Touratech Suspension, the EVO shock absorbers are of course fully serviceable. The shock absorbers can be disassembled and overhauled from time to time or after heavy stresses on long-distance trips. Afterwards, they are as good as new again. For consistent performance and lasting driving pleasure.
