Weve recently been to Pyrenees and last year the Isle of man and the Tiger gobbled up every thing thrown at it with ease.
The Tenere is a 60:40 road / off road bike that has fair handling and fair performance. It will carry similar loads but wont cover the ground so easily
and relaxed.
thanks for your comparison, looks like the xt660z is more for me after all
since I like to choose roads less traveled usually
