Default Packing a Burgman

I pack as if I'm giong on an airplane, carry on only. (2 people)

My hump bag (Tank Bag) carries
extra bunge cords
air compressor
tire repair kit
maps
2-water bottles
1 lightweight rain suit
small flashlight
small roll electric tape or duct tape

The Saddlebags
personal stuff (carry on luggage)

Under the seat
binoculars
camera
additional gear and clothes for unplanned weather
extra rain suit
both helmets (when parked)
both leather jackets (when parked)
a small towel

whatever you want as extra space

The front storage
wallet
phone
maps
gloves
a very clean rag
a med clean rag

I do it this way so if it's not an over niter I don't take the saddlebags.
Shorter day trips the Hump bag stays home.

It's faster for loading for me

Your list may vary but there is plenty of room.

Me and my wife did a 1,200 mile 5-6 day this summer, 300 miles in the rain. We plan on it again next summer.
