Hi
Congratulations on your retirement and welcome to the world of Moto travel.
Apprehensive about your first long trip?
My advice, for what it’s worth, is DON’T do any research or watch any videos about Moto travel.
We’ve all seen them:
Don’t do this
You need this, not that

Or they’re ex enduro riders tearing up the trails on their back wheel.
When most people on this forum started, there was no internet, no dedicated magazines, no GPS, no adventure bikes - we just loaded a bit of camping gear on the back of the bikes we had a went for a holiday/vacation.
Everyone is different and everyone’s travelling style is too, so you need to find yours. You’ll do that by simply thinking about what you like and what you want, loading up your bike and setting off - that way you’ll find what’s right for you. Sure it’ll take a bit of tuning but you’ll have a lot more fun doing it your way.
The only thing I would advise, early on,is do your best to travel in kind whether.
