Desert Racer is on a distinguished road
Hey mate, welcome along.
I personally really enjoy my Tenere. Fantastic fuel range (500k's +) on mine. A few tweaks here & there to suit what I do on dirt roads & tar. One being additional spot lights as the headlight is fairly average. Some people don't like the buffering on highways but where my lights are mounted under the headlight helps. Drilling holes on the middle of the fly screen reduced it more. At legal speeds no problem.
Is it the right bike for you? Well you will only truly know by riding one. Just check movement at the rear sprocket due to knackered cush drive rubbers are a weak point but easy fixed with inner tube packers to get lots more milage out of them. Good luck buddy.
