First, Welcome to the HD Forums from Texas.
Second, I really envy you two for going, something I know I'll never do.
Third, I don't have a clue to your question. Sorry.

Check your owners manual for starters. I believe they give weight ratings in there. I'm sure you can stretch it over a bit as long as you feel comfortable with how the bike handles.

If you know where you are staying in sturgis, you can ship some of your stuff there and back. Three pair of everything will set you right, you can wash your stuff, or throw it away and buy new.
