As many different answers as there are different 'bikers'. Some will tell you it's got to be 1,000 cc or higher. Others, it has to be something Japanese (for relability and 'ease of use').

If you were going to set off on a long motorbike trip, what bike would you choose?
Back when I was an active biker, it would probably have been a BMW air-cooled flat twin.
Would that still be a good option?
Or maybe something else?
