Even for us Germans, Switzerland is extremely expensive. I was born close to the German/Swiss border, and I remember that my parents preferred to go to France (Alsace) with me and my brother because it was much cheaper. And that was 30 years ago. Now, with the bad EUR/SFR exchange rate it is even worse. The only thing you can do with your bike is to fuel it up right before the Swiss border and try to head through the country to reach Italy (or other neighboring countries) and hope that the gas tank is big enough. Do not stop for having a sandwich and a coffee at the highway, it will blow off your wallet.
But be careful - do not try to head through Switzerland too fast: The Swiss police is very strict with their speed controls, and if you exceed the speed limit to much they even put you in prison and seize your motorcycle. No joke.
