I've moved your post to make a new thread of your own - so you can bathe yourself in the attention for a while!

It seems to me as if the tourances don't like wet or damp roads.
My riding is only on roads but I do travel along a lot of asphalt country lanes.
I cannot ride the tenere to the same limit as my old Kwaka.

You're probably not used to the raw power of the XT!
Speaking from personal experience, I didn't get on at all well with the OE Tourances. Not great in the wet, very poor on raised markings and manhole covers etc. You'll have to try something different? Mind you, I have used Trailmax on the Tenere, and I was reasonably impressed with them in most conditions. So maybe it's "better the devil you know"...
