I simply don't have the experience of all the bikes other members have mentioned. Indeed, I don't have years of motorcycle touring history, but I have done a couple of serious tours on my CB1100. I have no fairing or screen and a top box. I also have an AirHawk seat cushion! For the rest I heave a duffel and, where necessary, camping gear on the seat and off I go. It's been just fine. It cruises comfortably at Australia's speed limits all day, the additional weight doesn't seem to make any difference to the performance and it remains a delight to ride.

I'm sure there are bikes that are way better for extended touring, but I can afford only one bike which I want to use for the occasional tour. The CB1100 does me just fine.

By the way, your CB250 looks just great.
