Biggest issue is the tank size, don't those things have like a 3 gal tank?

I figured out the BMW I was thinking of, either the R1200S or the R1200S-based HP2 Sport:

For commuting if I got 100 miles out of a tank, I could go an entire week without putting gas in it.

I would keep the bike I have now but make some touring mods like a rack and some hard cases like this one below. Maybe some bar risers, heated hand grips and a bigger windshield. Other then that the bike is perfect for me.
