Everyone has different requitements and depending where you're going and how far off the beaten track you're going to get. I've found going for 6 weeks or 6 months I take about the almost same amount of equipment and spares.
Good quality, water proof & warm riding gear. Tools, air & oil filters, tubes, tyre, clutch & break levers, chain & sprockets, spare plug's, light globe's ect. I take enough clothes for a week including 2 pairs of jeans, 7 shirts, 7 pairs of sox n jocks, a good pair of pants & shoes even a tie lives in my shaving kit, you just never know where you're going to end up! last's up to 10 days or longer going commando without doing laundry and it all fits in 1 pannier! 2 man tent, xped mattress, quality sleeping bag that opens up completely, cooking and camping, equipment, 2 torches, lighters, food & water, alcohol & cigars, no chair or table..... yet :-) Fuel, oil, coolant and WD40. Laptop, phone, maps, gloves sunnies and sundries. Also a hand full of small souvenirs & stickers from home for the special people you meet along the way :-)
Good luck with your planning, Cheers Dave.
