I wouldn't swap my tenere for one. I agree the suspension feels better and I prefer the ten riding position . I'm not saying the sertao is a better bike, just on the small road ride it felt a lot smoother. I guess my point is that it seems that the Japanese manufacturers have abandoned this very profitable class of motorcycle or do not understand it. BMW, ktm and recently triumph have all revealed fantastic new adventure bikes more relevant to us the sertao and the terra. Whilst the tenere rules the roost for me still, there is a danger of the Japanese falling behind
