which bike
You might get more sympathy riding an enfield.
It all depends where you want to tour. in western Europe, or anywhere with good roads the BMW is a good choice.. In my view tho they are too heavy for poor roads, especially when you have to maintain a slow speed. I think a more frugal bike weighing less than 180kg whose engine can do say 450 km on a 20 liter tank would be a greater asset than a heavier bike with amore limited range, even though it might be quicker on good roads.
