Who has a Super Duke? who has gone touring (4k-5k km) on it? what did you think?
I'd think for trips like that you might want to consider the Superduke 1290 GT

Tuono is the other bike I was looking at, but I can get a really good deal on a 2015 KTM with less than a 1000km on it
This is really a subjective question. You can tour on anything, it comes down to what you can put up with. I have done 1000 kms days on my old Honda CB919. Would I do it now? No, I am spoiled by my GS for touring and really all motorcycling.
Some will say you can do it on the Super Duke, others no, ultimately you are the one who has to decide what you can and cannot live with. Now if you are looking for a bike specifically for touring, there are options more suited and designed for touring then the Super Duke that will be more ergonomic and generally more comfortable.
If you only tour once or twice a year get the bike that makes you smile every ride and make the best of it when on tour.
I ride long distances to get to the fun stuff. I don't want a SUV of a bike when I get there.
If my intent was off road then the SUV bike makes sense.
But like most SUV they never go off road.
