Yes, the Savage is competitive and can do the job.
How ever, I also have a Yamaha Virago, that I can directly compare too and find that a trip like you described is easier and better on the Virago! Now if I had a BMW, I feel that this described trip, would even be easier and better on the Beemer.
The fact that a 250cc. Honda Rebel also made the entire trip, points out that the choice is open to interpretation. Increase the severity or endurance of the ride and the better machines would prove their benefits.
