What is ur survival tool kit for your 800gs

Post by Heavysnake »

Hi guys just wanna know what you Jedi masters, carry on your bike (tools/spares) weather it's a short adventure or a long one.
Thought it would be a great idea to have a list on here.
Even if you don't have a 800gs just list your bike with your list.

I guess it depends how far your going and what your likely to be getting up to. I normally carry some motion pro tyre levers a 21" tube and patch kit. Various tools. A spark plug. Some webbing for towing or getting tyres back on the bead.

I was thinking that stew. I wonder I'd it's an adjustable bar that locates onto the swing arm, on the opposite side from the side stand. Then you can use it to prop the bike up from the ground in conjunction with the side stand to lift the bike (and wheels) off the ground to take a wheel off? Or am I thinking too much?.....anyway even if it isn't, I want one!

It's an Enduro Star trail stand. Great for lifting the front or back for getting a wheel off. There's a guy on Ebay selling something similar for around £20. Mine came from the States so was a bit more expensive.
Just a great bit of kit that takes up so little room.
