Well we were camping the whole way, we stopped in towns every 5 days or so to sleep in a hotel or yurt, shower, and resupply. We carried an extra 10l of fuel, but never had to use it, except to help the locals on 3 occasions....we used maps.me as a main navigational tool and relied on the gas station info from the app hoping it would be accurate, and we planned our trips according to gas stations and water supply on the apps maps. We never had issues. We had a water filter and a steripen, never had water or sickness issues. Camping was free and everywhere, and terrain was anywhere from deep sand to Rocky mountains to mud and rivers to cross. Seriously no issues with the shineray motorbikes. I weight 260lbs and had my 75lbs backpack, fuel, extra 10l,of water, and other than one tube change, it went like a charm. We had never done any motorbike before, let alone a solo cross country 3 months trip camping.... I have a feeling ill never really have something this magical ever again....
Food stores... Well you don't go to Mongolia for food. Every village of a few houses usually had ramen, eggs, some sort of dry meat, and that was pretty much our diet for 3 months. But French wine and vodka were everywhere....you can cross the villages every day or so if you plan well so you never really get away from. Supplies.
Remember that sometimes the villages have 5 or 6 houses..Also, at night there is an endless supply of dried yak excrement that burns hot and long and keeps you warm.
