well if we assume that for an overland trip you would pack money (cash and credit cards), passport and bike documents AND your helmet (!), my 5 must have items would be :
- WarmnSafe Electric jacket & gloves - LDComfort riding tights - sheep skin - warm (top of the range wool) set of clothes - money belt Any thing else I can buy on the way...

A week, a month, a year, however long we travel we never leave home without:
1] A leatherman 2] A Buff each 3] At least one Sarong [it has many many uses] So my list is about the most useful items, obviously we would have to add items such as cash and credit cards etc etc. Joyce

1) Petzl Tikka headtorch
2) Etrex Vista HcX 3) Heated grips 4) REV'it Offtrack jacket (seriously versatile) 5) Northface Roadrunner tent Leatherman? No, you end up doubling up with the real tools as well. Small pocket knife for me. Languages really help but I find just turning up on a motorcycle usually 'speaks their language'!

I've just added "Gardening gloves" to mine.
Good for removing hot pots from the stove, keeping your hands warm while working on the bike, collecting firewood, changing tyres, working the BBQ etc etc. Better than ruining your riding gloves.

A good idea that helped me out was downloading the service manual for my tenere and putting it on a memory stick. Saves carrying a wedge of paper around.
