it was time for something a bit more bike then the Tenere while honestly the Tenere is a fantastic fun bike and I didn't had the intention to sell it untill I saw the Triumph Tiger.
When it comes to traveling the Tenere has some limitations while it's doable due the vibrations of the mono-cylinder after a long period of times limbs start to fall asleep or feel numb for quite a while, in the mountains it's an excellent bike but on long more smoother and straighter roads a mono cylinder stops beeing enjoyable and you wish for small roads to come soon. As said the bike apart from that was excellent and if it wheren't for the Tiger I would've probally squeezed out more years as I was really content with it for the 3 years I've driven it.
This Triumph while it offers me double the Horse Power it has something what I found more important...it's engine is a 3 in line which is smooth as butter making it a excellent bike to travel which I discovered trying an older Triumph Tiger of one of my friends. It was then I took a look at the dealer and when I saw the bike in the flesh I was sold. It was a hard decision as I didn't want to let go of the Tenere but I couldn't affort to keep both nor do I want to keep both as the Tenere will probally end up gathering dust and I rather have it going to someone else who would enjoy the bike as much as I did on the road.
