Load Capacity for South American Trip
Hi guys,
I am a french guy willing to undertake a year trip around South America.
I am currently looking at luggage solutions but I am kind of lost in the volume I should take.
This is the Set up I was thinking about:
1 tank bag of around 8 Liters
1 duffle bag (I already have the Mosko Moto backcountry) : 40L
1 set of saddle bags (such as Enduristan Moonsoon) : 60L (30L per side)
I was also thinking of smaller saddle bags such as the Blizzards from Enduristan 24L (12L on each side) but not sur if it is enough or not.
I will also carry on my back a small backpack that I will mostly keep empty during rides but will be used during daily visits around town.
So (without the backpack), I should have around 110L of carrying capacity.
Is that enough / too much for a year long trip in both warm and cold weather with camping gears?
Trying to be as light as possible. Will be on a KLR 650 European C model from 2003.
How did you do? More space? Less? Would have taken less stuff?
Thanks for your help and have a good new year.
