Sorry if this has already been taken up elsewhere, but latest issue of Motorrad magazine has big test of about 8 adventure tourer bikes. S10 in World Tourer clothing takes a strong 3rd place after R1200GS (1st) and the new Triumph Tiger Explorer. Strong points for the Tenere being chassis and suspension that "is as good as the BMW electronically adjustable suspension". The S10 gets the usual criticism for flat engine response. I didn't read the article fully to understand the test conditions and all the results. Looks like a decent review though based on my quick glance.
I can't help but wonder how a flashed ECU would have affected the test ranking?
