Hey man, good on you for getting out there and figuring out how to ride that big bike in that terrain. Learning what works and doesn't work for you in different situations is a pain but you are better for it no doubt. I'm happy for you man. Keep up the skill development. I'm jealous of you right now. I just bought a Super Tenere myself. I hope to be there one day.

Love my 2013 Tenere!! About to take a 250 mile trip tomorrow and can't wait. Figured that 600lb dead lift would be hard. Good job though!

8:21 Take those pillion foot rests off when off-roading, or you risk bending your frame (or the footrests), especially if you fall on a hard surface. 12:05 I always carry a crushed soda/beer can that I slip under the side stand to make sure it does not dig into the soil and have my bike fall over.

Why I never really consider these adventure bikes unless you like group rides. Flipside to that is you pick them up enough it'll make you a better rider rather than manhandling a 250 off road. If for no other reason than you'll get good...so you don't have to pick it up anymore. Pain has a way of honing one's focus.

Not any more a beast than a BMW R1200. GS or a Triumph Explorer, KTM etc. If you take a big adventure bike off road....you are running the risk of having to pick it up...duh. I have one of these bikes and it is an excellent bike.

(lm NOT a GS fan by far) my dl weigh 219kg and thats heavy from time to time, try 50 to 60kg more. Not a walk in the park on loos surfase. And yes l love the super ten look. One of the best looking super adv bike.

Have an 18 Tenere and although I am an experienced dirt rider I’m really not wanting to ride this big pig in stuff like that…. The bike is too damn heavy and at 64 I don’t want all the stress of picking it up alone… Will gladly rip that terrain on my KTM 300 or my Honda XR 400…. Just the right tool for the job 👊

Hey dude, your life is yours. But I have to tell, If you want to go offroad, buy a smaller bike in order to learn how to do that. Like a tenere 250, ou CRF 250L. And them you'll find out how to control a big bike. I'm just saying.

@@gamotur Because the fan cools the fluid that cools the engine. The fluid cools the engine in such a way that the pump forces the fluid to circulate through the machine. If you turn off the engine, the pump stops working, fluid circulation stops and the overheated engine does not cool down. The engine temperature rises significantly above the recommended values. The pressures increase significantly and an unnecessary load on the material (seals, metal) is created. Therefore, it is necessary to leave the engine running until the fan shuts down, and it will only turn off when the engine temperature reaches the required value.

Actually, you should ALWAYS turn off this bike in these situations.. This bike has fuel injection, stops the flow immediately. Also, why leave the fan on? No need for the engine; flat on its side, and there for no need to cool via fan.
