Hi,
I've got an 05 DL650. The longest trip I have taken is only about 1000 miles. I have owned many bikes over the last 40years and it is one of the very best for what it is built for. It handles gravel roads much better than I would have thought. It is great on any pavment. And it is comfy. A big tank at almost 6 gallons. It beats a BMW in my book hands down because it is about 100 pounds lighter and the motor is faster. I ride 2up most of the time. It may need a bash plate if you are going to get rough. It is not a single track bike, but neither is a Bmeer.
Bill
