I should have been more specific.

Other than a motorcycle, toothbrush and a couple of porn mags, what should I take?

You might have to get more specific than that... :lol:

How about MMMmMMMmm... Rain Suit? Lip Balm, Sunblock?

If you are looking for fashion tips in that part of your State.. This is Texas we are talking about.. Just strap on a couple of six shooters and a bandolier of shotgun shells and you will fit in anywhere ;)

Jumper cables, air pump, gps, fix a flat, duct tape, cable ties, extra battery for phone, chargers, folding chair? I'll be doing the circle tour around Lake Michigan this summer so have been planning myself. Look around on the web. There are sites devoted to motorcycle trips with good tips. Nice to find a Honda dealer on your route.

My saddlebags already have the necessities...
Rainsuit, extra (dry) shirt & clothing, maintenance items, and such...
I dunno what all is needed for your journey, but I would be set with a change of clothes and sleepingbag tied on for a backrest...
Some folks NEED electronics, music and more stuff for their travel, I don`t!!

Already mentioned is that weather can be wet, dry, hot OR Cold depending on God and His plan...
I wear my jacket and chaps when I ride...

Ride SAFE,
Dennis

I can see a long list but I pack a tire repair kit and small air compressor cell phone charger and rain gear and the cloths I need. Credit card for whatever else I might need. And I will pack my camera.

Ummm...beer? I don't know what kind of week-long trip in West Texas doesn't entail camping, but I know what kind doesn't entail beer. The really boring kind.

I will be traveling with my friend Wayne who rides a Goldwing... I guess the ole scoot will be well laden with tent, airbed, sleeping bag, long sleeve t-shirts and vest. Rain suit, clothes for 4 days... razor, toothbrush ect. a roll of toilet paper, my tablet for email and movies... anything I forgot,,, Wally world is every where...

That goes without saying. Any thoughts of the less obvious?

Don't forget lotion and tissues. Vaseline is way too messy. At least that's what my friends say.
