A few of obvious ones (having just got in from the pub!)
1. Make sure your AA/RAC cover will get the bike home if things should go shit shaped (took a Harley to Europe 3 times and only came back on it once!)
2. Europe is much bigger than the UK so expect places to be further than you think.
3. Pack your top box/panniers/haversack etc etc then take half the stuff out because you won't need it. (have toured abroad at least a dozen times and STILL pack too many pants/tee shirts/woolies!)
4. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy - roads are better, food is better, attitudes to bikers are MUCH better!
Have a brill trip!

The only way of finding the limits of the possible is by going beyond them into the impossible
