Default California Touring Advice

Hey There,

I have a friend who is getting married in Eureka, Ca, the northest portion of the state and I live in Los Angeles. I was thinking of riding my bike up there, a 2006 Suzuki Boulevard S50.

On Thurdsay I will ride from Los Angeles to Santa Cruz. 374 miles
Friday ride from Santa Cruz to Eureka 345 miles

Sunday I'll ride back from Eureka to San Francisco 272 mils
and then Monday back to LA 394 miles

A couple of things I am worried about: Rain. Apparently, it rains a lot in Nor Cal

My Tank only holds about 3 gallons which can push 120 miles roughly. So, a lot of stopping to fill up. I was thinking of taking a gallon plastic gas tank stapped to the Passenger seat.

Any advice or tips?
