How very true. I use a RT as a daily. The bike rides so much nicer with the panniers off and just a small tankbag. Same is true for a Pan European. It is not just the wieght of the panniers (even when empty), they also make the bike more bulky and are certainly not help when you are filtering. The Police RTs do have much smaller panniers!

Hey Pavlin, I am not in any way a seasoned motorcyclist like you. I ride, and that's it. But your advice about minimalist travel is amazing. My wife is queen of light travel. Your advice sounds exactly like hers. Now you know why I listened to you with great attention🤭 Thank you

[@motorcycleadventures]

Great to hear it! Enjoy your trips!

[@allanb52]

We bought a Vespa GTS 125 in the UK and my wife and I rode it to our house in central Portugal. We had a front rack which was not needed and had everything we needed, all packed under the seat or in the back bag that came with the scooter. Two people.. and one of us was a woman!!! and we wanted for nothing, okay we stayed in hotels but I would be surprised if we had 10kg. It was fantastic, I was 66 years old at the time. But he is right, we have a Vivaro campervan and pack a minimum of stuff in that too, it's a good philosophy, less is more.

[@motorcycleadventures]

Thanks for sharing!

[@rogerbradbury9713]

Good advice. I haven't done any really long trips but I've gone to a lot of motorcycle rallies. I leave the DSLR and lenses at home and take a small, light, mirrorless camera with kit lens; they can be found secondhand for not too much money. I carry a set of mess tins, and as well as providing eating bowls they are filled with pain killers, meds, loo roll, sewing kit etc. I'll take enough meds to last the length of the rally plus a day and all the body maintenance stuff is in one place. Anything that can serve more than one purpose is great. I have hard panniers; ancient fibreglass Cravens that are waterproof but not too heavy and I use a tank bag too. I have a list which I print out, cross out anything I'll not need on a particular trip, then tick off items as I gather them. This also helps me not to take two things to do one job.

[@franckbrunie4759]

On the various 2-weeks offroad trips I did in Africa, my luggage was only 6 kg. So one additional tip is to share items with others that travel with you as a small group. Like tools, tubes, common spare parts, pharmacy, some spare items (like motorcycling gogles). As camping gear, we only took a silk liner, to sleep anywhere local, and tape to fix holes in local mosquito nets !

I cannot tell you how useful this advice is. Thanks to you and your packing style, me and my wife can go on any trip using my topbox. Usually we both have everything there including some of Dima's homemade "fuel", clothes and rain gear. All in a 50 liter topbox for 2 people. Thank you.

[@germansestopal6167]

Would you please inform how you pack that? Thank you.

[@laszlobauer5274]

@german sestopal As Pavlin said in the video. 3 t-shirts, 3 paires of socks, 3 pairs of underwear, 1 pair of zip pants, one small bag for hygiene (foldable toothbrush, smallest toothpaste, small soap, small deodorant), 1 small towel (packed it's size of a 0.2 can of coke) and pair of walking shoes (also very thin and "compressable". That's it for me. My wifes packs the same, instead of zip pants she has leggings and a dress (both smaller than my pants). Every night we wash our underwear, socks and tshirt and it dries until next the morning. My old rain gear did not fit in my topcase because it was too thick but the new one will. I also carry a tankbag but all I have in it is my 3L camelbag so I can drink on the go. If I buy souvenirs, I put them in my tankbag. Was this any help?

[@laszlobauer5274]

@german sestopal If we get cold, we put on the motorcycle jacket, or maybe the boots too. Sometimes we pack swimwear too and flip-flops, then it's a hussle to close the topcase but it's possible.

Hi Pavlin. I totally agree with you. For me, the hard paniers are necessary when traveling in "populated areas" as the main "enemy of man is the man". When going into country side (villages and off-road) one doesn't need antitheft protections. A big part of my limited long motorcycle trips weren't into the cities so, believed or not, some of my "saddlebags" were represented by plastic bags strapped with elastic cords on my motorcycle.

[@ichbinmartin]

Hi Pavlin. Your advices are always great, (but also this time not for me, we are almost on the same wave). I always packed two bags for any trip, because they are lockable, on both the old and the new motorcycle. I don't even have a tank bag, don't have body bag. I have documents and money like you, always inside of my jacket. The heaviest thing I carry is probably a disc lock and a large SLR camera. I don't have a camera or a drone, I don't like moving pictures, I know they are full of them on KZbin and better than what I would shoot. I mainly want to enjoy the trip and when I want to go somewhere, leave the motorcycle parked in peace, because there is nothing to steal from it. When I was young, I was a tramp, I slept under the stars, I didn't have a tent even then, so at our age I don't consider it any adventure anymore. In addition, I have a road motorcycle, so we sleep in hotels so that after the evenings we can still sit somewhere in the city and enjoy this atmosphere. We also went camping, again we only managed to pack in side panniers on two motorbikes. I have really strange feelings when I see how uniform all motorcyclist are. SUV motorcycle (GS or alternative), many cases, tank bag, a lot of things attached to it, enlarged windscreen, mandatory navigation, some even brag about how they buy sim cards in every country so they can use navigation in their mobile phone (ok, navi is super, but then people stop watching the country and road signs and look only to the small display). They are all dressed in those universal suits and they have road reflective vests on them, that is, except GS owners, they have BMW suits, hehehe. And then I'm just waiting for when those loaded several hundred kilos will start to hang out with men in their years. In the summer on the road, it even happened to me that an elderly man with a GS loaded in this way did not hold it and it fell while parking about 10 cm next to my brand new motorcycle. The ease and carefreeness of traveling and individuality have completely disappeared. I apologize if I was too negative. But whether I look around me on the roads or on videos, photos, travelogues, it's really like you say.

Many thanks for sharing those valuable information with us.🙂. I agree with you that hard paniers are not the way how you should travel especially off road. Too heavy and additionally they will catch you leg in case of accident. Take couple of spare USB-C cables especially if they are exposed to rain and cold weather. To reduce time needed to charge your devices (after long day on the bike) its worth to invest in charger which can charge couple of devices in the same time after arriving to camping place or coffee place. 3 x T-shirts - way too much. Depend if you travel on and off road as well as if you can dry it during short time. 3 x sox - way too much. One motorbike sox will do the job. Pillow can be replaced with the bag (shown on you video) filled with your clothes. Takes no extra space and cant be punched like pillow. Additionally do not slide so easily like pillows in sleeping bag. Can you please share with the tooling list which you do care with you for T700? All of above based on my own experience gained in last 4 years and 100kkm (on/off road). Greetings from Switzerland

Emphasizing weight distribution and limitations: All tools stay attached to the bike. For this (SA) bike, I've designed a kit based on the same principle: everything should fit - without sticking out too far or blocking the lights - and the combined weight of the bike, rider, and gear shouldn't exceed a balanced, ideally minimal, load. In my case, that's 80 kg, leaving a maximum of 23 kg for personal gear and saddlebags. Best, Erwin Holland.

[@jamesskinner7744]

Please address the subject of weight distribution of luggage as well. Is it better to keep added weight low versus up high in top boxes? Is it better to put some of the added weight on the front of the bike? How is bike handling hurt by poor weight distribution choices? Sort the luggage items into high density (water, fuel, tools) and low density (sleeping bag, clothing) and locate the high density items low on the bike with the low density items set up higher. This basic principle of organizing loading will help keep the bike's center of gravity lower, improving handling and making it easier to pick up if dropped. When mounting side bags or panniers, how should we determine the optimum balance between ground clearance and low center of gravity?

[@motorcycleadventures]

All of this is true, but it is a topic for another video.

All the new bike are out of controls with weight increases. It seams it will never stop. To start save a few pounds and go back to a single front rotor system. Hold the line on engine size. I don't need more then 70 HP for an ADV bike. Stop with the high end, high RPM performance. 100 HP and 80 foot pounds at 8000 RPM? I don't run 8000 RPM on a dirt road. More torque on the low end not the high end. On dirt I often run 2000 - 3000, some times lower and my f800GS has no power at low RPM. Even minimalist, we have a lot of tools, and camping stuff we need to haul.. With water, food, tool, camping gear, I carry about 70 pounds. Consider this. Plan your trip with the idea you bike is a CB500X or DRZ400 and keep the load manageable as if its going on a small bike. In my case, I will not cut corners on a good tent, chair and warm cloths, sleeping bag. I often go when nights get down to 20F.

Great video thank you Pavlin. Your passport sized wallet looks very useful! I can't find anything similar online. Did you buy it online? If so can you please share the website? Thank you. :)

Hey Paulien Thanks for you video i have a question about olie do you use 10 w60 voor de Yamaha T7

[@motorcycleadventures]

Yes I do! Motorex

[@alainmaurice1271]

Thank you for the informations. I have a question about one of your videos in the past regarding your trip to India. Why you didn't use your Yamaha 660 instead of a Royal Enfeild?

[@alainmaurice1271]

This is a very good point of view. Now I understand why you did not take your motorcycle for your trip in India. Thank you very much.

Do you carry tyre levers?

[@motorcycleadventures]

Yes, I do. Mounted on the right side of the bike with zip ties.

Hi Pavlin, what are you doing with a Dublin licence plate on your wall?? 😂

Hi Pavlin, loving the videos. I'm concerned if I would be able to change my rear tire (Scorpion STR). It is notorious for being a tough nut to crack. Are you able to do it with the tools that you carry?

[@motorcycleadventures]

Yes, hard work but possible.

[@lucacaileanu8989]

The more trips I take, the less luggage I take. Sometimes I see people traveling with all the things they have, maybe they are moving 🤔

[@motorcycleadventures]

Yes, some people really cannot get it!

„If your trip is only 5000km, you don‘t need to bring any oil“ - well tell that to KLR owners 😅

Ok
