In Tour, it gives the full 150, but dials back on the torque & gives the cushiest suspension possible.

In Enduro (Now there's a term that's a blast from my past!), it only offers 100 ponies, but gives full torque, cranks up the suspension, as well as allowing you to turn off the ABS & the traction control.

If it works, it's genius. If not ... well, the big problem w/ Ducs has always been the cost of maintenance. I can only imagine how much coin it'll cost to have this thing towed/repaired from the middle of nowhere ....

Check out the video presentation here.
Shit. Sounds like an interesting ride for sure.
