Versys rider here looking for an upgrade on my trusted awesome 2008 Versys. The most fun bike you can have under $8K dollars and probably the only bike I would ever need if not for the need to ride long distances two up.
I test rode a Super Tenere a week ago. Really good bike , super comfortable, good power,good handling (for a bike that size). Seems like a bike that can do everything I need very well. However, when I got off the bike the first thing that went through my mind was " I want to try something else before I decide.
Lat Sat I test ride an R 1200GS and a Tiger Explorer. I'm not going to waste my time talking about the GS. It's been taken of my list. However, the Explorer just got me. It is the nicest engine/bike I've ever tried. I think I'm in love.
However, there is a lot of good things to say about the Super Tenere. I need t hear it from the owners. My biggest concern and the reason why I'm still considering the Tenere is total cost of ownership. European bikes maintenance cost scrare me. Is the Tenere as reliable and cheap to maintain as my Versys?
