Nope if you want to cruise in triple digits speed...The character of Duke 200 is low end power but struggles at the top end so it makes cruising on highway bit difficult.. And also the tank capacity is around 10 liters which is very small you need to keep a eye on petrol bunks for every 200 + kilometers. Also the seat isn't the comfortable one for long rides but for short drives it's quite manageable.. you need a after market air seats for sure if you want to go for an long ride.

It can do long distance touring as the engine can cruise at 110 kmph all day long. However the seat is on the firm side and foot pegs are rear set, so it might get uncomfortable after riding for sometime. You can make some modifications like extra cushion in seat and handlebar riser to make is better, however there are better options available in the market today like Dominar and Mojo if you want to buy a bike just for touring

If by 'best' you mean the engine then yes. Otherwise, its not at all meant for long rides. The seat is small and hard, your knees bend alot which causes alot of fatigue and pain. The engine feels stressed over 100kmph which is not an issue but irritating at times and of course the heavy wind blast since its a naked motorcycle. So overall, do not buy the duke if touring is your main agenda.

It is good, i have done many long rides, max 600 kms in a day you can do comfortably, but if touring is your only purpose look for other bikes like dominar or FZ25
