It all depents on what kind of riding you will do and what bike you realy like.
Peter and Kay Forwood are riding around the world on a Harley. ( [ http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/forwood/ ) and Sjaak Lucassen has been riding around the world on a Yamaha R1 ( http://www.sjaaklucassen.nl/ )
My uncle has been riding his Harley Lowrider in Zimbabwe on all kind of roads (and I have had much fun riding his Harley in South Africa http://jkrijt.home.xs4all.nl/trips/lesotho/index.shtml )
Why not keep the Harley, just make some modifications for heavy duty riding and go for it.
If you really want another bike, try out as may bikes as you can and don't go for other peoples opinion but find out for yourself. Like Ted wrote "Opinions are like A-holes..... Everyone's got one".
Rent different bikes for a few days, try bikes at dealers, ride friends bikes until you know what you want.
Good Luck
