Sure! How much can you carry in those saddlebags? Ten, maybe 15 pounds per side? How much does water weigh, 8 Lbs/gallon. How much water are you going to need on your 5 hour trip into the desert, where you are completely exposed to the elements? 1.5-2.0 gallons. Emergency spares for the bike? 5 Lbs. Misc. gear such as food, spare batteries (luckily an RTW brochure is almost weightless, so cache trade weight is minimal) and such, 3 Lbs. Extra clothing (assuming you can find the space to cram it in) , 5 Lbs. Now your jaunty motorcycle is rather weighted down, is less maneuverable, and rather prone to breaking in rough terrain. I would say the best option would be to trailer the bike, or load it into the pickup, and drive to a cache-dense area to find caches from a base-camp sort of setup. Perhaps that is what you had in mind?
