I've been lurking for a week or two here and thought I better join. Lots of good info accumulating on this site.
Little background info. I'm 44, ex motor cop from Montgomery AL. Lots of riding time from racing MX when I was young to 8 years dodging cars for the PD. Left the PD bought a few Harley and realized I was burnt out from riding after doing it as a job for 8 years in the AL heat. Both HD never got above 900 miles on the odometer in a year so I quite riding for almost 10 years. But........The itch got me this spring and I scratched it. Bought a KLR 650 to test the waters and well I think I want to go all in. Been shopping online and think the Tenere is the bike. Main reason is reliability . BMW claims great reliability but I'm not sure. Also if its reliable then you have to deal with the sky high regular maintenance .
One question . Is the Tenere a limited production bike? Will it be around next year?
Thanks guys/gals. Looking forward to getting a Tenere soon and doing some rides with fellow Tenereias...
