    Thank you for making a really clear video, I am going to change the levers on my Tenere World Raid and watching your video made me much more confident. Subscribed now.

      Thanks! Levers are a great upgrade. Easy to do and really can improve the feel of the bike.

    Great video! I bought the same levers and will be installing them tomorrow. You're an inspiration!

    This was a great video.

    Thank you very much for this video Points Unknown! Clear, short, to the point. Now I'm sure even an unskilled Ténéré-fan like me can change the levers ;-)
    Just like you mentioned, I felt uncomfortable after a few off-road experiences with the long travel of the OEM lever.
    Love your mirrors too, I'm checking out your chanel right after this to see what they are.

      Thank you! I'm actively working on more T7 accessary and upgrade videos, so stay tuned. The mirrors are doubletake mirrors. Love them. Have them on all my bikes.
      I may not have millions of views or thousands of followers, but if it's helpful to one person, it was worth making. Thanks again for the comment.

    when removing the clutch lever you have to screw the silver part all the way in to get slack and line up the slot so that you can remove the cable leaving the silver adjuster in place. then do the opposite when installing the new lever. what you are doing at 3:10 is wrong

      Sure. If you say so. But my method worked just fine. And I'm not sure how you would remove the cable end from the slot with the adjuster in place. But I appreciate the feedback and can try that next time.

    Did you have any issues after the install? I did mine today and am having clutch and brake lever problems. It's like they're too close up the grips in the farthest setting.

      I did not have any issues after install. Assuming they are the right levers for the bike, If you are able to pull both of the levers all the way to the grips, then it sounds like there is too much freeplay in the clutch and air in the brake lines. There shouldn't be that much play in either lever, to be able to pull it all the way in.
      That being said, it's curious that you didn't have the same problem with the stock levers. And perhaps something else is going on. Without more info on not sure how to help. But certainly don't ride it if you don't have working brakes or clutch.

    Yeah measuring with a caliper... 😁😁😁😂
    Just fully lock the handblebar left and right and make sure you have a little free play left in each position. That caliper is bullshit method.

      Just trying to show how to do it per spec. But yeah, there are easier ways.
