As far as traveling and providing your own energy, it is possible to do on a motorcycle, you just need to consider average power consumption, and power production. Typically an electric motorcycle is about 100Wh/mile, so you go about 10miles per kWh, if you travel around 45-55mph. or 10kWh will get you about 100miles. If you have good sun and a 1kW solar array (I think that would be a reasonable size to be able to store and transport in a motorcycle trailer) you might be able to travel 100miles every couple days. I think a 1kW wind turbine would probably be too awkward to transport, but also I think wind is even less predictable than sun, and in some places you simply wouldn't have wind to charge.

I think the number one take away I got is don't plan too far ahead because most likely nothing will go to plan, and just enjoy the journey, because the journey is going to take a long time.
