Touring Motorcycles
A touring motorcycle is a motorcycle that is designed for touring. Any type of motorcycle can be used for this purpose, but companies make the touring motorcycle specifically to provide a more comfortable ride over long distances. Differences from a tourer to a non-tourer are: custom-designed windshields to withstand high winds and weather, a larger fuel tank, custom-tuned engine that deals low-end horsepower and high-end torque, much more relaxed seating position, more storage for items and media players with GPS navigation. Other names affiliated with touring motorcycles are touring bikes and baggers. Customers can customize their touring motorcycle with heated handlebars/seat, integrated air compressor, more storage, custom color scheme, etc.
