G'day Hugh,
Butcher's track is a doddle. It gets corrugated but that's about all. It is very wide for many k's and the only narrow spot is around Muggon.
All of the other roads you mentioned are usually in good shape - you'd romp them in with a Patrol.
Thundelarra to
Yalgoo is reasonably scenic and the road is bitumen once you get to the
mine at Golden Grove. There is a mix of salt lakes, low hills etc but North of
Yalgoo, particularly after the
Dalgaranga Rd crossing, it is pretty flat country until you get up to the section between Murgoo and Wooleen Stations.
If Wooleen Lake has water in it it can be spectacular. If you take this route, you'll go close to Meka Station. I once saw a guy mustering sheep on a 900cc Kawasaki road bike at Meka. It blew me away!
Not far west of Murchison Settlement there are the Errabiddy Hills and some nice scenery. You'd get in there with a camper trailer - we did.
Overall the roads are good, if not a little corrugated and they get graded at least once per year, so if you're lucky you might have excellent conditions.
