So you have looked at other ADV bikes and have narrowed the field. I bought this Super Tenere for the specific purpose of taking it to the Arctic Circle in Alaska. I equipped it with the following for the trip: VStream tall windshield, Oxford heated hand grips, Alt rider footpegs, Altrider dry bag, Altrider luggage rack system, Rotopax gas pack 2 one gallon containers, Altrider headlight guard, SW-Motech crash bars, SW-Motech skid plate, SW-Motech Dakar waterproof soft luggage. So needless to say this bike is ready to roll. This bike was both comfortable to ride on/off road the entire way. So there you go, a well furnished and set up bike for the great price of $9800. The accessories alone are $2275. The mileage is 18,543, but I still ride it so the mileage will vary. Nadaguides says the average retail for the STOCK bike is $9915
