I've done all but the bit to the right of Stratheyre on the second route: on 28s.
Around Killin, I would be tempted to reverse the NCN part rather than heading up/down the A85 to the top of the pass.
It's a lovely bit of cycle network.
I can also second the suggestion of the south side of Loch Tay: quiet, lovely views of Ben Lawers.

Not technically touring, but I'm looking to do a few rides around Killin/Callander at the end of this month, prob riding from a base near Balquhidder, but will have a car as well.
We will be on a Croix de Fer with 35mm clement tyres/Fairlight Strael with 32 or 35mm Gravelking SK tyres. I've found one nice looking loop and planned another full day one based on the Central Belter route.
Does anyone have experience of these routes and want to give me tips or suggestions on the routes? The shorter one should be rideable on our bikes so with that one it's more about whether there is a better ride we could do instead. The longer one could do with some local knowledge to confirm/deny if it's passable on our bikes.
EDIT - I've added an alternative longer route which I have found.

Also found this as an alternative to the Long day
