As per my previous post I am heading off to Europe in June/July for a 10 day trip around Germany, France and Italy. I will be camping as opposed to B and B. So for those experienced tourers amongst you, can I ask what kit would you take. I ride a GS at the mo so already have a full set of panniers and a top box. I will not be riding with a pillion so there is also storage space on the rear seat. We will be eating out as opposed to cooking by the tents so cooking equipment is not a requirement other than the means to make a brew. I've been on tinterent doing research but some of the lists are amazing with what people think is necessary to take. So in you opinion what would you say is an absolute essential, what would be handy and what is not really necessary.
Cheers
Sauners
