I don't pressure wash anything, at most it gets a couple of buckets of water from time to time to take the worst of the grime off.

I haven't gone off road with the Tenere. However, the roads around me are littered with speed platforms / humps / mini roundabouts, not all of which are taken at the regulation 20mph, and the roads in the SE are particularly bad at the moment, with some deep and unavoidable potholes.

The engineer was also surprised, I guess it could be just a duff set.

Currently looking at the weather and thinking that I had planned to be out all day today (Sun).
