If you want to make a tour on the road by motorbike, you have to spend money because you have to buy gasoline and food and it is very hard to save these two subjects. But, if you are not expecting a five star hotel services each night then there are some techniques to keep your budget moderate.
The first thing is that no sensible person will start calculating how much it costs to get a motorbike and to make tours with it. The budget of the tour depends upon the duration of the tour. In case of motorbike touring, different persons make tours of different duration from 2-3 nights to a couple of months. Let us think a tour of two weeks for a typical value.
Usually the price of one liter of gas on EU is about 1.20 EUR. Let us consider an average ride of 400 kilometers per day. A normal bike operator can run 100 kilometers by 5.5 litters of gas. Therefore for a tour of two week you have to spend about 370 EUR for gasoline. The cost of food will depend upon how you like to eat, cook on your camp, or eat at a good quality restaurant; cost of eating for two weeks would be vary from 50 EUR to 350 EUR or more.
The cost of sleeping will also depend upon you. If you sleep in your own tent in a forest for two weeks the cost will be 0 EUR, if you want to sleep in a tent in a camping ground the cost will be 200 EUR for two weeks, if you want to sleep on cheap log cabins in camping grounds the cost will be 500 EUR for two week and if you want to sleep in a hotel the cost for two week will be 1000 EUR or more.
Therefore the total budget for two week trip may vary from 420 EUR to 1700 EUR. For many travelers, especially the travelers whose income is limited, the difference of 1300 EUR can break their hope of traveling. So, you have to decide, what you should do to keep the cost down.
