How are you getting there? flying the bikes in? , riding there via Russia? , taking the train from Moscow?.
The only massive issue is that mid September is the start of the russian winter but this has benefits in that the mushy bits in the north are harder and drier.
2 is a good number to travel in as if one gets in trouble the other can help out , the mongolian gravel desert is nasty though , bring LOTS of spare tubes and or repair kits and a spare set of tyres (can be bought in Ulan battaar)
Collectively me and my wingman are bringing 16 inner tubes + those on the bike half heavy duty half normal tubes and 4 repair kits each giving us 64 patches to fix tyres and a potential 72 patches before we are stuffed.
