I am planning to go on a trip to 2000 Km. I own a Pulsar 220 and I bought a new Himalayan. Can anyone suggest to me which resources to carry to complete the 2000 Km trip? Also, suggest me which bike should I take to the trip.

I'd take the Himalayan. I considered one as a small capacity tourer but ended up ordering a crf250l instead as it suits my off road need a little better.the Him is a better touring package out of the box though. Chris Scott's website is worth a look - he rode one across the Sahara. Also Itchy boots travel, she's going RTW

I don't really know what you mean by resources. If you mean equipment that depends on things like where you're travelling and whether you are camping or not. 2000km isn't a massive distance, I'd just load up coming gear, cook kit and some basic tools

In this heat? A camelback. The bike will be fine, you'll dehydrate.

Take a can of spam to keep your energy up. It's inexpensive, it's compact and it will survive water and heat without going bad. Ideal!
