I must say that I find most of the electronic wizardry of the Tenere rather useless. I cannot stand driving in T mode. Really if you can't modulate the power of this bike in S mode there is something wrong. Perhaps if they called it snow, Ice, and rain mode I would accept it. Traction control 1 is the same way, what is the point. ABS is great. I find that I am riding the Ducati more and more to get some excitement. The Tenere is comfy, handles great, hides its weight well, super reliable, but exciting it is not. I better get on the Power Commander bandwagon soon.
