Its a state of mind mate - like others I came from a 'big bike' background - the latest being a CB1300.
To me if you are thinking along the lines of the tenere perhaps you are moving away from that 'white line fever' approach to biking. If your mind now tells you that that is no longer what you are looking for out of a bike and its time to see other things around you rather than black tarmac, the back of the cars you are approaching and on coming traffic alone the xt is a great bike. Enough power 90% of the time and great fun on and off tarmac.
Ever gone for a tarmac ride and then seen a track and thought, s**t I'd love to have a look up there but couldn't because you would have ended up on yer arse? If so you couldn't do much better than an XT.
For me top speed aint an issue, I like to see where I am not just the brake lights on the car infront.
