Again,
T-shirt
Body armor
shirt
i went up and down india this way. Dont worry too much about abrasion. you wont go fast on your road to leh. But you will get cold without odlo underwears or similar. Get a good jumper, a rain coat ( i have a foxracing enduro jacket, many big pockets, camelback hole and lots of zippers to let the air flow or not) a polar shirt and you should be ok.
It is only 2 days ride until you reach the cooler hillsides.So you may go only with warm gear, but if you get stuck in traffic..and you will this could be hell.
i also had a leather jacket..drove 2000 km with it thru radjasthan. Then i got my friends to send me my armor from switzerland. The choice was easy i sent the leather jacket back home.
Up in the mountains you will enjoy your ride much more if your bike is with as little luggages as possible, and a second jacket will take a lot of room.
Cheers !!
