I've done 225 mile days on my Royal Enfield this summer, it will hum along at 80 on the freeway just fine. But you are out in the wind, and even with an aftermarket seat, this bike is short on creature comforts. Highway riding gets old pretty quickly

I had a Yamaha FJR1300. Put 100K trouble free miles on that before trading it in on a LC/GS. Have nothing negative to say about the FJR except its lack of sixth gear. The ST1300 are good bikes too..lots of good choices out there. Just gotta match the bike up with your style of riding.
