It would be fine. It wouldn't be very fast. An opportunity to take in the scenery, like a bicycle but a lot less effort.
(Not 2000 miles all at once, of course. You'd probably fall asleep while riding in that case, no matter what cc the bike.) ____________________ Bikes: S1000R, SH350; Exes: Vity 125, PS125, YBR125, ER6f, VFR800, Brutale 920, CB600F, SH300x4

If you're on a schedule, it'll be rushed, even if you plan for it.
If you're a Trustafarian or on a "sabbatical" and abandoning your wife to pay the mortgage stinkwheel it'll be just fine. People can and do go round the world on them. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Depending on how many miles you'll be averaging per day, along with things like weather conditions and the possibility of a flat tyre and/or breakdown in the middle of nowhere, also how comfortable your bike/riding posiposition is, you may not be able to even look at it again for at least a week without groaning, never mind ride it afterwards.
But, yes. It is certainly doable.
I speak from experience btw. Although it wasn't quite 2,000 miles. I think it was around 1,400 - 1,500 over a 3-4 day period, if my memory is correct. ____________________ There ain't no devil, there's just god when he's drunk.
2012: R125 killed by white van. 2016 R125 killed by 30,000 miles of redline. Current: 2016 Kawasaki ER6f. |
