My wife lasts 1 hour before she starts complaining. She likes being slightly taller on the back so she can see more though. I guess it's down to a person's size. She's about 68kg.

As for riding loaded up, I changed my suspension since the original is a poor performer but then again so is the V storm's. Plus, V stroms are known to suffer from cracked frames (aluminium fracture) which is probably a load issue.

Don't by a tenure with an engine number in between 6400 and 9200 engine numbers. Check out Facebook for Tenere groups and V stroms groups and photos.
