You already know the answer......
I would never rely on a dealer (or anyone else trying to sell me something) that one bike is like another in any respect (apart from maybe the number of wheels or colour, possibly even fuel type).
You have to decide if you are willing to buy a bike without a test ride (like many Tenere owners have, me included), or not. That is all you really need to do, after that the rest will follow.
The Tenere is a very able bike, but not everyone likes it. If you crave power, then it's probably not for you, if you have a problem with a high bike, again it's probably not for you.
I always like the phrase "you can go fast, but I can go anywhere", it suits the Tenere well.
