Yamaha Tenere Suspension Sag | Quick Guide

Here's a quick guide on how to set your Suspension Sag (Race Sag) by yourself on the T700, although the basic concept would apply to other motorcycles.

This is not a comprehensive guide to suspension sag, static sag, free sag etc... there's certainly better (and more accurate) ways of doing it but, it's super quick and easy and all you need is two hands, a zip tie and a tape measure👍

Im 178cm, i dont have a solid foot on the ground (mostly the tip of the foot when both on the ground), would reducing the pre-load on all springs fix this problem ?
