jak750,
care to share your travel route?
As the others said, just get your bike in working order and go. Me, I carry two HiViz jackets under the seat of my scooter. One for me in case of an accident and one to wrap around my helmet and place it on the ground as an improvised warning signal in case of accidents.
I was told by non-Germans that Germany is the country of  , bread and cake so you might want to sample the produce on your way. These days most bakeries sell a good coffee and a sweet or salty snack so no need to get fancy if you don´t feel like it. Same goes for butcheries, usually you´ll get a hot snack at a decent price at least until noon.
You might want to take a road or two off the Autobahn ... there is so much more to see. As a German it always pains me seeing travelers blasting through my country at full speed while missing so many nice places to see and things to experience.
So come with an open heart and enjoy!
