Surprisingly i will go with the general opinion here. Busa. I don't like it personally but international magazines also rate it as a very good tourer. Infact i read about an article where they did a tour from england to turkey on it. It is not as uncomfortable to ride as the gixers, kwackers and yam and more importantly it has a very unstressed engine which is a boon in touring.
also no matter who says what the litre class supersports don't have the tank range to go for touring.

You can also look at Bandit. As posted somewhere else it has already reached leh. so i guess it can go anywhere in India. Looks are a bit too honest for my liking. But i think it is a genuine tourer.

On the other hand the busa and the bandits won't hold a candle to the supersports brigade on a race track. But then will you be going on one?
