Marv:
I think this largely depends on a person's fitness, particularly core strength. Riding bikes is a rigorous activity and demands stamina and strength. Also, riding lighter bikes may be helpful. I toured on 650's for a couple of summers, and they were just fine for power, even in the mountains.
Vash:
Take some 3 and 4 day trips before going on a long one. Touring is a real learning activity.
