Compared to my 20 years old VFR I find the Tenere very light and easy to manoeuver.
the high handle bars and grab rail make it very easy to stay straight and the light steering help too.
manoeuvering a 20yo low bike with a "hard" steering is much more difficult: you're bent and can exert no strength whatsoever and have a poor balance.
The Tenere has helped me a lot gaining confidence in manoevering a stopped bike.
And a week without sidestand has helped too... climbing up/down the bike without sidestand, using the centerstand all the time..
