The Best Touring Motorcycle EVER... From a Pro Tour Rider

The Best Touring Motorcycle EVER... From a Pro Tour Rider

In this video I talk about what I honestly believe is the best touring motorcycle for long distance riding.
Why I decided to share this with you?
I got into a heated debate over whats the best touring motorcycle, with a guy that don't currently ride.
Which lead to the recording of this video the same day as the camping video.

So here is the TRUTH about what I think is the best touring motorcycle.

Thanks for watching.

Excellent point. Stop arguing and start RIDING. Customize for a CUSTOM RIDE.

I agree 100%. The best touring bike is the one you own. Make a few changes to make it comfortable and go!

[shortyrock]

That’s the best advice I’ve heard about getting a bike

[peterpaulharnisch]

Finally, practical advice on touring bikes. I completely agree with you sir and I’ve been riding for 40 years!!!

[johnpina]

💯💯💯 but good suggestions can save some money. Hahaha I’ll take both sides of the coin.

[joebrown]

Well said brother!!! It doesn't matter what bike, it matters how comfortable you are on it.

Hey Rich


Once again, because you are "backlit" by the l bright sky behind you, you face is a bit underexposed (not as much as I've previously mentioned, because now there's a LARGER portion of YOU in the frame, which is good). Here the problem is MOSTLY that the hat brim puts your face in shade, (because of the direction of light behind and above you). It would have been better to ditch the hat, or even MORE better, always try to be FACING the sun, without Kake casting a shadow on you, blocking the light from the sun, as she videorecords. Well, there you go, another free tip to a great guy (and gal).

This popped up when I searched for "best used touring motorcycle", and I loved the wisdom of it enough to subscribe. Even my wife who doesn't ride and usually doesn't pay attention when I watch videos about motorcycles commented on how much truth was being said. Thank you.

Bottomline is the bottomline. Best for you may not be best for me.

Great video!!! Keep it real brother. Currently riding a 07 CBR600RR. My wife won’t ride with me nor do I think it would be a enjoyable ride for her. I love the sound of a inline 4 but my 600RR IS NOT good for more than a hour or less at a time. So I find myself looking again.

I love it!! Great info. We've taken week long trips on every bike we've owned but one. Of course, the most basic was a '91 750 nighthawk but we were in our early 20's. Lol At that age we didn't have many aches and pains yet.

Amen!! I toured coast 2 coast on a 2004 Silverwing scooter (after I modded it). It was great. Have done it on Gold Wings. On a VT1300 Interstate. Each one was awesome for me after I modded it for ME. I don't understand why your channel isn't more popular, it is awesome. Anywho, thanks for sharing your videos.

There is no such thing as a prefect bike. They all have issues, but there are some that are better from the dealer to be an almost prefect touring machine. Ride what you love, and love to ride.

[rogereastman]

Good Vid my man....
For me it's my BMW..
But, most important is exactly what you for your common sense wisdom

[moviedog]

I like you, and you are so right. I believe the 2006 RSTD is the best touring bike period, ...for me. For you it's YOUR Goldwing. Thanks for the upload 😀

[romanlarionov]

Great point man!! Thank you for this video!!!

[SmokeyA]

Shit bra quit trying to appease all those that don’t own a Goldwing it is bar none the best touring motorcycle ever made period 🦾🦾👍🏿👍🏿

[floydturner]

Great blog, I agree with what you're saying .I'm a first time viewer . Its very nice to hear from a neutral party .I ride a BMW k1200lt and it fits me just fine for long distances . I rode with many different riders and that have different bikes and they all was fine with what the had as well . Keep up the good work and I will be watching you !!! (smile)

I’m on my 3rd Wing so you know what my answer would be. When I had my Honda 900 Custom I rode from Houston to the Grand Canyon so it was right for me. My wife rides a Honda CTX DCT (her 9th bike). Love your videos. BTW, I’m 72 and she is 69.

Great topic...As for me it's the Honda goldwing bikes 2012-2017 model. The reason I believe it is best bike for most people is protection from the elements, reliability, low maintenance, stero system etc. However it may to large for some people so making your bike touring friendly is true👍. I have ride my 2012 from south carolina to California and back to south carolina over 2 weeks. No problem
