I am about to leave on a long trip and it occurred to me to wonder about the weight of stuff I am about to carry.

I have 25 lbs of "stuff" I carry on a rack which I use which is attached to my trailer ball ... I am carefull not to get that rack too heavy.

I suppose I have a further 45 lbs of tools, boots and heavy riding jackets, as well as clothes and such in saddlebags and frunk.

Plus the two of us weighing in at around 320 lbs total. (Me somewhat heavier than she ... LOL).

So I figure we must add up to something just less than 420 lbs plus the machine itself ... (including a few lbs for farkles).

So how much do each of you carry? I have seen a few Harley trikes loaded down with at least 500 lbs of passengers alone ...
