“Now, you can see why we pack light”

2 spark plugs
1 quart oil
1 roll electrical tape
dash lamp bulbs
1 can “fix a flat” wrapped in a rag and taped up.
* wrench to fit every size needed on your bike,
wrapped in a rag, with a tie around them.
clutch cable
flashlight and batteries
wire and duct tape (wrap a small amount on a stick)
trickle battery charger
colored rags

I have learned from riding older bikes to carry extras parts. Even on the newer bikes today, it always makes me feel better to have them along. I also carry colored rags to put under my bike when working on it. Have you ever dropped a nut or bolt and couldn’t find it?

*The wrenches can be separate in the bottom of your saddlebag.
