I can't speak for trails but anyone who says it's too "small" for touring is havering pish.
Buyers don’t want nice.
Hmmmm.....Is somebody going to elaborate ????

Nice just doesn’t come close to wow! and that’s what sells bikes. Whether that wow factor is bling, performance, style or exclusivity is irrelevant but the Tenere has none of them. It’s just a nice bike that’ll do the job but you’re never going to walk into your garage and smile even when you’re not going to use it.
I’d buy one if I was planning a trip that would in all likelihood fuck it up because I wouldn’t care if it got me there and back
Too small for touring ?
As in underpowered ?
Done 2000 miles in a week on my 701 which is a similar size though much lighter .
The answer is to have multiple bikes.
A nice reliable comfortable bike for touring and light off road (a T7)
A bike that stirs the loins and is beautiful to look at (I dunno… something like an MV)
And a cool crusin bike for the chill out days when getting in the vibe is a priority (must be a Harley)

Hello
I am going touring on my T700 next week to North Yorkshire via Wales all with only 72 BHP .I wonder if I will make it?
I will not be worried about final drives,shafts breaking,fuel pump controllers,dodgy switchgear, front forks folding or oil usage. All the things in my 1200gs ownership?

Glad its not just me.
I have three bikes that perhaps somewhat covers this. F800GS, Ducati, HD.
Everyone should have an Italian and a Merkin in their garage.

I don’t feel that I’m missing by not having something from Merkania.
