It’s just easier to say the bike wasn’t engineered for XXX. I must have missed the part in the manual that specified what the “intended” purpose of this bike is.
I might just as easily say “if you don’t like the oem tires, your taking this bike where it wasn’t intended or engineered for”.
If you modify your bike and put a more substantial skid plate, or crash bars, you “might” be taking your bike “in places it wasn’t designed for”.
Disabling the ABS is a good mod for off road. Just like skid plates and crash bars.
If it helps Your ego to call people with more off road skill or ability than oneself “ham fisted or chest thumping” so be it. Just know the Super Tenere is far more capable than the pavement princess you think it should be.
