Tough Road
I did it in Nov. & wasn't that bad ! I think all the hype around it is out of
proportion ! As for a road bike clearance could be an issue but you can't go fast anyway so I think it would be alright, i have a BMW 650 twin and the clearance isn't that great on those either, had more drama on potholed roads and sleeping policeman are a real pain in the arse. The road is long and hard on your hands tho, but I would not shy away from it, in fact I enjoyed it now I look back. Don't
be put off by what happened with the recent attempted hold up either, as the saying goes 1 swallow doesn't make a Summer !
You will enjoy !  
Cheers
Paul
