Doing a Euro tour on a supermoto - insane?

[Khanivore]

Is it practical to go on a one or two week bike tour of southern europe on a husqvarna 701sm or ktm 690 smc? Other riders will be on a range of stuff from GS's to sports bikes. Ride leader tends to stick to stick to 70-80 while others have a play, dropping back and catching up. The ride is to the picos mountains.

Reason i ask is that I'm currently on a Ducati 848 but fancy trying something a bit more upright that I can just go out for a blast on and have fun on without going silly speeds. I'm not skilled enough to pull wheelies and all that - 99% of my riding is country roads on weekends for fun going from cafe to cafe. A supermoto sounds like it would be fun for that, right? Could it handle a tour though - this is my first and at most i'd do it once a year.

I did on a 690.

Motorways not so fun, but lots of tighter roads much fun.

Mine was the enduro model - I had road biased tyres, but took off road tyres to play in Spain too.

It would be fine if you re going to Picos by Bilbao ferry, it's an awful long drag down through France otherwise but more reasonable one way only and not rushed.

Appreciate the feedback guys. Thanks.

As long as you have a tank range that doesn't mean everyone is waiting for you to fill up twice as often as them, why not.

Motorway stretches might get tiring but you'll love it in the twisty sections. I think it's hard to beat a good supermoto for fun in short blasts. The seat might limit you somewhat also but there's plenty of solutions to that.

Might be that something like the Duke or an MT09 type thing might suit your purpose better though. There's plenty of upright hooligan bikes that'll make better all rounders than a SuMo. I love that dirtbike stance though, definitely adds to the fun for me.
