    Would a 2011 air cooled T100 be up to the journey???

    I think you are best placed to make that decision. You know your bike and more importantly the sort distances you can comfortable ride in a day and then for another 10 days or so.....

    Yes no problem. We won't be doing any great distances and we'll be having plenty of stops for drinks, snacks, photo shoots etc. Also, we are having two lots of three night stops in one town so you get the choice of rest days or bike trip days.

    Seriously though, I rode my 2004 T100 from Winchester to the Mosel Valley a few years back via the tunnel.
    Only thing to watch is the tank range and the bloody uncomfortable seat. After three hours I was in agony. That to me was the only limiting factor. :cool:

    That was in the context of my old Bonneville - no problem sitting on the Tiger for three hours!
