Man rides from South Korea to Germany to do some laps at the Nurburgring.

His wok is definitely iron.
A motorcycle with a bit of blood in it is better than any riding animal on earth.

Ya meet the nicest people on a honda

I may not be a fan of honda motorcycles but they do make the cub so i guess honda has some good things.
Not fast
not sexy
Not a SPORTtourer
just goes anywhere and never gives up
Till the morning comes, it'll do you fine.
Till the morning comes, like a highway sign,
Showing you the way, leaving no doubt,
Of the way on in or the way back out.

Oh they give up quite a bit on these long journeys.  But the fix is usually less than the cost of filling the tank on a GSA1200.

Hell, you can swap a brand new motor in for less than the cost of a Givi topcase.
