What tools do you carry?
mikesmith:
I dont really know what I exactlly have,so I'll look. A pair of latex gloves. Sun screen. A Moose canteen,I also wear a Wal-Mart camel back(real camel backs to much$,and there on the tree huggers side as far as hateing off-roaders.So I wouldnt support them) A trash bag(in case it rains Ill wear it like a rain jacket) A bag of Hot Hands. A bottle of Sting Arrest(for bee stings)that was leaking. An emergancy blanket. Some toilet paper. 18mm socket I found on a ride. Soap Bag containing small bandages,gauze and tape. map of local riding area. Advil and Excederin. I carry my wallet and keys. Mag light. Zip tyes. Spark plug tool,and a plug. Quick steel. Money,paper and coins. Nylon strap. Pencil and paper. Nuts,bolts,washers. Electrical tape. Wire and a hose clamp. 3 way 8,9,10mm socket tool. 3 way allen wrench. A whistle and compass. Rags and some of the tools I keep in a piece of inner tube that can be cut for bands ect. Leatherman tool, lighter,and water proof matches. 2light sticks. Power Bar. It's a good idea to look in your bag once in a while(like my sting arrest leaking).Bicycle shops have some good small tools that take liitle room,and Wal-Mart camping/hunting supplies area of store has some good things to carry.

I have got a lot of bits and bobs in my bum bag. The picture in the link is a spark plug holder which I rate high. Keeps the spark plug clean and dry. Just the way you want it when you need it. Another thing I always carry in with me is money, ~?20 or so.

Just kidding! :lol: I carry one of those compact toolkits and a new plug with a few extra bolts, zip ties, and a walkie talkie so my wife can come pull my back to the truck with her 700 kawi quad. Which actually did happen about a year ago when I broke a throttle cable on my YZ. :x I carry everything in my camel back, pack! I do use a unique mixture in my camel back, a health store product called Ultra Fuel and Ice and water, it not only replenishes electrolytes, it also is an energy drink. I never get tired or dehydrated while riding, I just collapse when I get off and have a beer! :lol:
