[QUOTE="Brody, post: 587225, member: 14590"] Yes, I think so but those distances seem too long. I rode Europe and the Alps for 2 months at the end of 2007 summer--2-up on a fully loaded V-Strom 650. The mountains make their own weather. Rain, fog even snow may be encountered and don't forget about the cows (along with manure) on the roads. And there is only so much daylight. You don't want to do this in the dark. I still have my Garmin rt's saved from my trip. On review, it looks like we did 300 km a day on average usually about 6 hours of riding per day. 3 in morning and 3 in afternoon. [/QUOTE]
