    is Super Tenere still a good buy today?

    Hi, I learned that Super Tenere is no longer offered in Europe since this year, buit got some really good deal on new black tech St1200ZE 2019 left over. I was actually planning get new Africa Twin but stumbled on this last one in my country. Very tempting, what do you think?

    direct mounts to the engine?

    Wonder if anybody had problem with this design where they bolt skid plate and side stand directly to the engine. I know it's not an off-road bike but many take it there and I have seen many pictures with engine case broken when stone hit the side stand mounted like that. Mostly on KTM 1290...

    Anybody tried to disable Unified Brakes and ABS?

    hi, just asking because these are the only things which put me off from buying this great bike. Probably I will still buy Super Tenere soon for long distance touring but still I'd like to have option to disable these enforced upon rider "features".

    gush, why linked breaks???

    this is for me the biggest drawback and disadvantage of super tenere so far. Same as ABS which you cannot simply switch off like in bmw GS is a nonsense, fortunately people already figured it out how to disable ABS so I can live with that. But linked breaks??? come on honda tried that and...
