I made a mistake and you are correct. I have OHLINS front and rear on my 2014 ST. I posted the correct info on the general discussion page after I could not find this post in the tech board. That post was closed by the moderator as a duplicate.
I raised the front shocks to the top of the triple tree as the Yamaha service manual showed. I measured the old stock rear shock and it was the same length as the ohlin. My tenere appears to have the stock dog bones (links). The bike sits higher on the front slightly after adjustment and I could not tell any difference in how it handles after a short ride. It sits better on the sidestand. Now to adjust/check the ohlin set up for sag and preload.
I'm trying to be careful with the suspension baseline and get a good starting point to adjust it.
Thanks for the help and grace.
