I totally agree with ya DragonSlayer,,, a person would definitly want to be on 1st Gen for that one,, outrunning bandito's and all that would be a whole lot easier on the faster of the two bikes..

Hey a 1st gen aint that much lighter then a 2nd gen, I know I picked my old mk2 up a bunch of times. I was thinking like a BMW duo-sport or something like that equipt with the anti-bear deterrent I carried on the Sturgis trip for the Bandits in 44 Ruger magnum cal.

That would be the adventure of a lifetime on a Super Tenere but I would have needed new underwear after some of those roads:scorched:

I'm wondering how he was able to balance those big brass ones on some of those spots. That guy is nuts (pardon the pun).

a 2nd gen would absolutely fall through some of those wooden bridges as well as the lakes he seemed to be riding in. A great video, but SCARY
