Yamaha Ténéré 700
suspension options
Italian suspension specialist Matris has turned its
attention to Yamaha's popular Ténéré 700 ADV with
replacement front fork internals and rear shock
absorber upgrade options.
For the front forks, Matris recommends the 'Classic'
F25R hydraulic fork cartridge and its advanced ADV
and Dual Sport derived "Quad Valve" F25RX (25 mm
cartridge) that allows compression, rebound and
spring preload to be tuned and adjusted for riding
M46R
F25RX
conditions, preferences and loads.
The F25RX is a fully adjustable complete hydraulic
cartridge kit that replaces all the OEM internal fork
components and is a ready-to-fit solution with no
modifications to the original forks needed - an
excellent upgrade of the original fork, offering
greater calibration customisation options and an
"evolved" riding attitude for those looking to really
"work" the potential of the Ténéré 700.
Manufactured in 7075 aluminium alloy (Ergal -
aluminium and zinc alloy) with anti-friction lapping
and anodising treatment, the 12 mm anti-friction
lapping 7075 rod is hard oxidation surface-treated.
The set of CNC-machined billet aluminium
compression and rebound valves has its own
dedicated shims stack for total hydraulic flow
control.
The complete set of 25 mm CNC-machined 7075
compression and extension pistons are supported on
self-lubricating sliding bearings complete with
specific lamellar packs. The spring preload with
reference click is mounted on an axial roller bearing;
there are 38 clicks of extension adjustment and 38
clicks of compression.
For the rear suspension, Matris offers a choice of
solutions in its multi-adjustable hydraulic rear shock
series - M46R, M46K or entry level M46KD -
equipped with a knob-operated hydraulic spring
preload unit for easy and fast setting compression,
rebound, length and preload adjustments.

V4 Streetfighter
3/4 QD exhaust
system with
titanium
mufflers
German Italian motorcycle parts and
accessory specialist Stein-Dinse recently
added distribution of Italian made QD
exhausts in selected markets and is offering
this new Euro 4 Ducati Streetfighter V4
semi-full system twin titanium Gunshot
muffler by QD.
In pure Superbike style, this new 3/4 system
for the V4 uses the first part of the OEM
headers with a 2 in 2 layout (52 mm
diameters) and H-shape balancing pipe "for
the perfect flow in both engine banks".
"All the pipework is in TIG welded AISI 304
stainless steel; the mufflers are the new QD
titanium Gunshot with thermo-injected
magnesium end caps and deliver a
traditional QD signature sound - the power
gain is +2/3 hp throughout the rpm range
with up to +6 hp at the top end; the weight
saving compared to the original is -5.7 kg."
The original rear footrests can still be used
and, as with every QD exhaust product, it is
covered by a 30-month service card
activated warranty. The system ships with
an electronic exhaust servo eliminator; ECU
reflashing available on request.
