I thought the idea of touring was meant to be relax and enjoy .

It depends!

Get there fast, then tour the area
or
Relax and enjoy the journey

With that, I don’t think there’d be much relaxing 😁

I’d like to try one out on the autobahn 😉

How about a turbine powered Kawasaki NInja instead?

I think on that thing you would want to get to your destination as quick as poss so you could start healing up a bit. Mind you would have plenty of stop's................to put petrol in.

I know, don't care.
That stretch off road is 7Ks long. Halfway along is a bend, all drivers were easing up on that bend, hooligan here thought sod it (calculated) and didn't ease up. My passenger, a Iranian called Hani who took the pic turned white and screamed. I got the fastest time but no trophy :'-(

I find the autobahns amazing. You can be doing 160+ mph, and you still have to watch your mirrors for cars that want to pass
