Monty, Darren has always done a great job with my (and my mates bikes) and will be the first stop if I get a Tenere.
Back to pre-load, it will alter the "ride height" by lifting the bike but at the expense of the ride, by the time you wind it up enough to make up for the extra 3 degrees of rake the GS has over the Tenere it will be truly horrible and right at the top of the travel (suspension works best in the middle third of travel)
Dropping the forks is also a bad idea on the Tenere as it has relatively limited ground clearance and this will only make it worse.
I decked out the demo bike on deathwings without even trying, with a set of Roadsmarts and forks dropped through yokes the footpegs will wear out faster than the tyres!
