I guess I'm lucky...she asks me everytime how much she can take and usually takes that much or less.

Check out these sissy bar packs. They are perfect for long and short trips. Got one and it fits the bike great.

The GF gets the tour pak, I get a saddle bag, the other saddle bag is for the rain gear and other quick grab items. The cooler, helmets & jackets go on the tour pak rack.

I handed her the tour pak bag and said take anything you want as long as it fits in here. She did pretty good.

One bag each. And you can buy anything you need at walmart once you get there. Pulling a trailer just for clothes is ridiculous.

My wife rides her own but still someday I think I'll end up wearing all the clothes I take along on a trip. The way it is I always pack an empty bag that somehow ends up full and strapped to the passenger seat for the return trip.
