So if you had 2K to spend on a bike to go touring on which would it be.

BMW RT
Triumph Trophy
Honda Pan European

Maybe something that will get you down to the Alps / Black Forest etc ?
Not really interested in the knee down corners more comfort and cruising.

I would keep my eyes open for an early 1980’s BMW R100RS. They can be had for that money and in good condition, will appreciate
My mate has exactly that bike and has just got back from Oktoberfest - I'd love to go next year hence the post !

I'd never go full on touring because I'd want a bit of fun when I got to where I was going... so my vote goes to a K1200.

That said an RT is a lot of bike for 2k.
