I've been trying to think if there is any unique advice I could offer. Someone has already told you to bring clothes for both very warm and very cold weather. That's the most important. So, I'll offer this:
If, in you're already over-booked schedule, you have the chance to cross the bridge into Oakland/Berkeley (motorcycle ride!), visit the UC-Berkeley campus. And there you must -
1. Walk down Telegraph Ave. Time stopped there in 1968. Buy a tie-dye shirt and political bumper stickers. 2. On Telegraph Ave., buy a slice of Blondie's pizza. It's tradition. 3. Visit the campus quad. You'll recognize it from all those Free Speech protest films from the 60s. 4. Climb the hill just above the football stadium. Sit next to the canon that fires when the home team scores. From there you have a great photo-op view of San Francisco, flanked by the Bay Bridge on the left and the Golden Gate Bridge on the right. Watch the sun set over the Golden Gate Bridge.
