    I suggest adding a pair or two of the Latex extra heavy duty mechanics gloves so you can put them over your riding gloves in inclement weather it’ll block the wind plus keep your gloves dry and they’re easy to store

    • @travishinson9214
      @travishinson9214 Год назад +3

      I actually use a pair of the black household cleaning gloves since they are gauntlet style. Just find the size that fits over your riding gloves. The mechanic nitrile gloves are also a good idea.

    • @bjb7587
      @bjb7587 Год назад

      ​@@travishinson9214 I like. My large sewer gloves don't fit over my Gerbing heater gloves. I'll try the next size up. Last trip I used heavy plastic shopping bags. Effective on my hands, but hard to grip the levers. Sure needed them tho. Used same on my boots. Flappy flap flap, but toes stayed dry.

  • @JasonLiebrecht72
    @JasonLiebrecht72 2 года назад +5

    A few things I always throw in (on top of what you have)
    - 2 USB Battery packs. A small one and a big one. Charge helmet, phone, whatever while having lunch
    - Fullsize trash bag (I've used this for a few things. Once for shade when broken down in middle of Utah)
    - Rain gear. It works great as a wind layer as well as water barrier
    - Definitely agree on the headlamp a few others posted

  • @InsideMyHelmet

    Tire plug kit and air pump. They make very small hand pumps and while it may take a very long time it saves space over a compressor unless you have room for one, which air compressors can be fairly small too. Liked the video! Keep it shiny side up.

    great tips.. I do bring all of the items you mentioned.. but I like to add a few things to your list. One is a spare, cheap set of levers. Oftentimes when bikes go down they slide.. the guards may help but ultimately it will land on the bars thus breaking off either clutch or brake levers. Easy swap and you're back up and running. Next is an extra clutch cable for those newer HD bikes that come with the plastic adjustor.. those have been known to break. Replace it with either the Fatbaggers aluminum version or have a spare clutch cable assembly ready for a swap. Not hard to do but could eliminate the hours you'll be waiting for a tow. Finally, extra fuses, tire inflator, and tire flat fix kit.. Believe me I've used them all in my journeys.

    Disposable lens cleaning pads for my modular helmet shields. Microfiber towels n rain-x. TP and paper towels. Trail mix. Packets of flavoring for water, diabetic so no beer for me. Also bread n peanut butter, another diabetic thing but I swear my friends eat most of it. One garbage bag and a few gallon Ziplock bags kept in the tool bag. Small USB chargeable flashlight with work light function I keep in my jumpstart bag. Tire plug kit-saved a friend last year with it. Keep all charge cords, ear buds in a Ziplock bag- stay organized. Small camp chair. Saddlebag cooler bag- 6lb bag of ice will last 2 days no problem. Kickstand puck or a piece of sheet steel for your kickstand. It always rains in Sturgis and if you go to Topless Tuesday, you will be parking in a field. Rain suit, disposable rubber over gloves if you don't have rain gloves, rain booties or just wear Timberland Pro waterproof work boots and not worry about your feet ever getting wet. Extra memory cards and usb storage jump drives. Remember to keep room, cooler side saddlebag empty for the hats, t-shirts, coffee mugs and assorted nick knacks you will buy on the trip.

    Terrific list. I’m going on my first long trip (1300 miles) in April so I’m new to this, but an obvious addition to this list would be a solid first aid/trauma kit. I build my own to keep in all our vehicles but if you don’t want to bother with building your own, My Medic makes excellent stuff.

    For storing your change/quarters. Find some mini M&M's in the long plastic tube. Quarters fit perfectly in the tube and you can fit about $12.00 in it and it has a recloseable lid . A little more secure than a plastic bag.

    I got one of those jump starters, they aer useless for starting a bike with a flat battery, they weigh a tonne they are only any use as a rechargeable light. And a simple USB torch is way cheaper easier to carry and can be charged from the bike's USB port or a cigarette lighter port.

    At age 54 I'm riding my 05 Road King out to Sturgis (first time!) from central Ohio next month. I've been doing a lot of thinking about what I will bring and how. I put a lot of thought into what to have in my emergency toolkit, for example. I have spoke chrome wheels and whitewalls that look super retro cool but I really hate having no option to plug and reinflate a tire if I get a flat. That makes me nervous. If I get a flat I am so screwed. There's so much other stuff to consider. I bought a jump box that is super cool. You can charge devices with it and it even has a flashlight. I really like the loose change and dollar bill suggestion. I hadn't considered that, and I have had that problem driving my cars. I just don't have cash and change on me much, anymore. Nobody does. There was a guy who said he uses pill bottles for quarters. Brilliant! The thing about two pairs of gloves; I hadn't considered that, either. I have a full rain gear set, but wet gloves would suck. I know I'll be bringing lots of stickers to put on gas pumps. You know the ones. One thing is certain; I'm gonna overlook something that when I am out there, I will wish I had with me.

    Get out all the stuff you think you need and lay it out on floor next to your bike. Then put half of it away as it is useless or unnecessary junk for travelling. When you get home and unpack the bike make a list of the things you didn't use or only used once. If it wasn't an "in case of emergencies item" cross it off the list for your next trip. A hell of a lot of people take far too much stuff with them and regret it, or often end up posting it home.

    Have a 2018 FLTRU with 75,000kms on it. Have ridden coast to coast across Canada. Next trip leave May 30th from BC Canada to, Zion, Bryce, North Rim, Monument Valley, Moab, Sturgis, Badlands, Deadwood , Devils Tower, Beartooth Pass and Highway to the Sun, about 52-5600 miles. After the regular stuff (tools) I take an air compressor (Harley) tire patch repair kit. Battrey booster (Harley). Being an old geezer I now pack heated gear, gloves, inner coat and pants, a full face hement and a beanie, 3 pairs of gloves, 1 heated, 1 cold weather and 1 summer/hot day set. Good rain gear. Also take a small diameter wire(about 2 feet) and long and short zip ties, a magnet pen for retrieving nuts and bolts we drop down in the bike, duct tape wrapped on a piece of cardboard thats abour 2x4 inches, keeps in compact and still useable. Water/gaterade.. always have some on the bike and couple packs of cashews.
