Great for the USA or Europe, but too heavy and too much wind protection for Thailand. Much of the the touring here is at slower speeds and a rig like that is overkill.
The bmw gs is a perfect touring bike here. Handles superb good in rain and around trucks and busses. Handles irregular pavement like a champ. You can stand up on the pegs and look eye to eye with the trucks. And there are quite a few around on the used market. They're also easy to maintain with a dealer network.
