What one needs is usually a lot less than what one wants. I honestly could get by with a pedal assist bicycle. And yes 100 miles is passable because isn’t far off what my Valkyrie (same engine as a Goldwing ) gets on a full tank.
Is it suitable for an all day ride? No, but it still wouldn’t be if it had a 200 mile range. But it would suit all my regular needs and look like what I want it to look like.
You can deal with 100 mile range on a touring bike? Sounds like you need a moped, not a goldwing.
