Photos from my trip (in no particular order). The rock star of my cheap dual sport luggage, a Tusk Tank Bag:
New handguards. Cheaper than a visit to the ER for a wrist x-ray if I drop the bike.
Studly and expensive tent:
Tools and parts which were left with the truck:
Waterproof saddlebag draped over a 1 gallon Rotopax filled with unleaded, with a tool tube tucked inboard of the bracketry.
Sheepskin. Probably the most essential of all equipment.
Cheap-ass offroad lights. I planned absolutely zero riding after dark but things never go according to plan. These dumb $35 lights were a Godsend!
Nice prep, you will NOT be disappointed!!
If you need it, you will not have it. If you have it, you will not need it.
Exception: it all goes to crap. Godspeed…
