4whats the wind blast like. will it buffet me wi the high screen if ma head is above it.. The screen position and seating postion is differet on the tenere than it is on the XTR and you dont get as much wind blast on the Tenere, { Im 6.1 }

5 Does it keep the rain off ye any better. No You need a Car for this one

6do they all come wi the heavy duty looking swing arm as the bikes a 09. Yes

7is the carrying weight any better. Yes. there is more room on the Tenere seat then we had on the XTR

8 is it the same rear shock or is it better than the XTR. Not 100% sure on this, but I think there are more notches on the Tenere rear shock.
