I've done remote motorcycle camping before. without a whole lot of problem. as far as gear, like SantaCruz rider, think ultralight backpacking gear, or close to it, and you'll be in the right frame of mind. if off on a forest service road, slow down, our connies are not a KTM dirtbike. but if you go slowly, generally you can make it down the road if it's not too bad. and find a spot to pull off and setup "camp". all organized campgrounds are off limits right now, which means dispersed camping, which meets the mandated social distancing. As Charlie said too, you better also bring what you think it might take to get through minor emergencies, like being able to install a tire plug if you pick up a nail. and a way to re-inflate the tire. things like that. and by all means, leave a itinerary with someone so if you don't come back when expected someone knows where to get the search party started. now may be a time to think about adding a power port to keep the cell phone charged, before you head out. with side cases, top case, and bungie nets, our connies can carry quite a bit of stuff. there were only 2 things i couldn't keep in the side cases and top case. the thermarest and the tent. both were too long to fit. but they bungied behind me on the passenger seat just fine. many filling stations are leaving the pumps on, so you can pull in and fill up. it is safer and more fun to ride in a group and camp in a group etc. but right now, if you need to get away and do some motorcycle camping badly enough, it can be done. however, unless this stay at home mandate lasts for several more months, probably the safest thing to do is just to stay put, do whatever maintenance needs to be caught up, and relax.
