Hi TT, I'm an ex Caponord owner, had mine for 13 years, like yourself I'm not overly impressed with the Super Tenere. I don't dislike it, it's just not one of those bike that you get off of, look back and say to yourself, great bike (I'm sure some of you know what I mean by that).
Mine has been reliable in the 20k miles I've had it, and it's taken me on four 2.5k plus euro trips and one of just over 5k miles, all without any issues. I changed the CCT on my 2013 bike for peace of mind and upgraded the clutch basket for improved running, the latter making the bike much nicer to ride.
The weight at times is a pita, as it the noisy motor.
I all honesty I would have expected a 10 year newer design than the Caponord to be further ahead in the game than it is.
