Picked up a S10 today. Bought it from the owner of my dealership. He often buys a brand new model to use as a demo so I picked up a Blue Tenere with 2000 miles on it.
Traded in my 2008 Road Star for this bike as I'm leaning towards adventure riding. The Roady just didn't do it for me any more so now it's my FJR and Tenere.

Scooper

Boy that is a paradigm shift! I think that you will like the Tenere for the type of riding you are interested in. I have yet to do any dirt/gravel roads but I am confident that it will be more capable than I will be! Welcome to the forum!

Welcome Scooper. I’m just coming off a Harley XR1200 in favor of the XTZ12B. It’s been a great bike so far and it sure does open up a lot of possibilities. The forum here has been great, too...lots of good folks with helpful knowledge in this adventure touring space. Anyway glad to have you on board. :)

Welcome aboard Scoop. Coming from a Roady is quite a change, but then I came from a Wing. Your gonna love this bike.
It is a sweet handler and has plenty of power..

Funny, I have a 2001 Road Star and a FJR.. I enjoy them all but I TOTALLY understand you selling the R*.. Hell, after the Tenere im thinking of "cleaning house".. The ST does everything so well... Welcome, and enjoy that new bike! Its a beast !
