This is my updated list of gear that I bring on road trips. The old list is here. This one is updated for the new Kawasaki Concours I now have so there are a few changes. The Concours has a center stand! Makes it easier to check the differential fluid. Yep, shaft drive so no chain to adjust. I will need to make sure the oil is topped off though. As to the trips, I do make adjustments as I prepare for each trip so what I actually carry may change a bit.
