What I want to ask you guys is that is the FZ (not the Fazer) good enough for touring?
I'd like to take it to Ladakh a few times, and other than that, I'll be mostly doing open highway tours.... (400 odd km per day).
Does this suit the FZ?
My first ride ever - Khardung La – 18380 ft. Riding to the World’s Highest Motorabl

There is proof. Havent been there myself. But from whatever little touring I've done I can tell you, the only probs that I've faced are a sore behind and some pains in my palm (negated by use of gloves of course). I've put in a mesh seat cover which negates the sore behind too. But not a lot of other people have faced this problem.

The Machine as such is splendid. It'll handle the terrains for sure. Kindly read the above link for the precautions taken. Read it otherwise too coz it is very nicely written.
