Nice dilemma to have.....!, but I know what Desert Racer means. I took my XR650R for an Mot yesterday. ..started 2nd kick after a year sitting in the garage....straight through the Mot with no advisories. Keeping a second bike makes no sense financially or time wise but as I blasted around on the XR all sensible thought left me! The Tenere is a keeper. ..I love that bike and in fact riding the XR showed what a great all round bike the Ten is. ..so civilised in comparison but still a great grunty single. The vague plan is to turn the XR into a 'Baja' style bike and use it for any 'proper' off roading I do....but if I sold it I could treat the Tenere to some fab upgrades. ..the saga goes on ! Steve
