Carry a good recharge forehead light, as you know all bad will happen at night or overcast. Tire pressure gauge, Electric Air Pump (Slime) that connects to my Battery Tender Positive cable or a 12 volt lighter plug I installed on the left side of the front (opposite side of the gas door switch, and a USB power port in the rear left saddlebag. A small crescent adjustable open end wrench. Chris the black back drop makes anything black invisible you are showing . Perhaps a white mat on the table for contrast. As aways the info is great. Yes I would like to see your drill bit tire repair suggestion.
I carry a small air compressor.
Me too.
Me too
I do also it’s very handy. Only on long road trips tough.
There's no point carrying a tire plugging set without a way to inflate the tire after you plug it.
The “Stop ‘n Go” tire repair kit saved my butt when I was 600 miles from home. The mushroom soft plugs worked perfectly.
That's been my experience also.
And now I carry a jump kit.
@@stephensmith60 Yes, me too!
Great invention!
I bought one. Actually full tools come in one smell bag.
i carry a little mini air compressor for compressed air after i put the tire plug in. Bob.
I carry a little compressor also. Slime brand.
That tip to carry a cordless drill and drill bits is brilliant. I just packed one for an upcoming multi day trip to Florida from Missouri.
I have a headlamp in mine also. I plan on getting a leatherman also
a couple of items I would add to your arsenal are; tie-wraps, fuses, wire. I also carry a Gerber multi-tool and flashlight (Streamlight Microstream)
On plugging a tire with the reamer is hell the cordless is a good idea.
Thanks Cruiseman, adding more items to my Amazon basket. Lol
Many items that Cruiseman has shown in his videos, I end up buying a few of them. Heck, I even purchased the "low chair" that he uses to work on his Goldwing.
Great video Chris
Hey Cruiseman this is Philly d I found two things after watching the video that you didn't mention one is an air pump to pump your tire back up after you repair it and number two is a knife to cut off the end of the plug that's sticking out of the tire so that it doesn't work it's way back out great video Cruise man keep up the great work.👍
Love to see your take on plugging a tire!!! And love your videos!!!
After I added my tire plug kit, I got a flat and found that I needed an air compressor too (duh). Amazon has a nice one. HGV Mini Tire Inflator Digital Portable Air Compressor. $39. Has its own rechargeable battery built-in, and can recharge with USB.
Don’t you have one on your wing
A spare key fob battery came in handy for me.
Good tip
I'm going to put something like this together by next weekend. I love buying tools anyway :)
I wouldn’t mind watching a video on the tire repair process. I currently have a nail in my back tire. I’m getting new tires Saturday. I also carry about everything you do. I try not to carry sockets or wrenches that I just wouldn’t use. I put some extra push pins, cotter pins, and a few assorted hex screws in my bag, in the event I ever lose one. For some reason, I just run out of storage room. I need to pack in my rain gear.
I’ve a screw in mine too.
@@livetoridecando As it turned out... I had a screw, but it went in sideways, and never punctured the tire. Whew! Saved me a new tire, or two.
The dealer (service) told me to not pull the nail/screw; let them look at it. When they pull it, and there's no damage to the steel core, they can most likely pull the tire and repair it. If you pull the nail/screw, they'll most likely say that it caused steel damage, and they'll want to replace the tire. Tip of the day. 😁
Love that shirt. And yes on the video on how to repair a tire on the road. Though it is something I hope I never need to do.
Thanks for this great video. To all out there, get the Stop and Go tire repair kit. A life saver. The drill is a fantastic idea !!!!!!!
Get a Gearwrench, 1/4 drive, 9” long, very slim profile head. It’s priceless for working on a Wing or anything for that matter.
Great video..and good detailed list. In addition…I always have a small usb rechargeable air compressor, flashlight and zip ties.
Definitely would be interested to see a tire repair video. I have done tire repairs on the road. You are 100% correct. Not easy laying on your side at some odd angle.
Love your Doghouse t shirt. Great work. Love your style. Stay shinny side up pal. Best wishes from Yorkshire!
Thanks! You too!
Thanks for doing the initialization.
Remember honda got rid of the air pump on the 2018+ so I also carry a small air pump for when you get that flat.
I also carry a mini 12v air compressor which fits in my kit as well but I like the idea of carrying a cordless drill. I have a number of them.
I would absolutely be interested in seeing a tire repair video. Thanks Cruiseman!
100% on point with that kit Cruise! That Bosch rechargeable drill is gold! Would love a video on tire repair by way of the plug! Thank you! Now, Where is my F#%*King 10mm socket? 😂😂
I carry a DYNAPLUG Micro Inflator V2 Air Pump Compressor and Stop n Go tire repair kit, plus a tire gauge because I check my air before I ride in the morning and don't want to wait for the TPSM system on the Goldwing. A small assortment of other tools like you have minus the drill. I also carry a small first aid kit.
Zip ties are a must.. small and large.. good vid.. 🇬🇧👍
Cruiseman I'm always up to see one of your how to videos, so yea make that plug tire video please.
I also carry few pairs of vinyl gloves, SWISS ARMY knife, zip ties, SLIME air compressor, compact vise grips, a emergency (silver) blanket, fuses, wire cutters (they could be part of the needle nose pliers), length of electrical wire, crimp terminals, small bottle of GOJO hand cleaner, some safety wire, DUCT tape (in addition to electrical tape), pencil/pen (I wrap my tape around the barrel). I like the idea of a compact drill too.
I've used plugs several times to get back rolling. I need a JIS screwdriver. I like the silicon tape tip.
Greetings Cruiseman:::nice tool kit, one can never be ready for anything without a plan. Although I’m sure, like me, all of your back up are very seldom used by yourself on the road but 99% of the time always helping others less fortunate stranded with a simple need.
Nice battery pack but lacked the air compress, extra fuses, apples 🍎, bananas, and chocolates in those saddle bags on 100* days. Ha!
I to love my small BOSH Drill set !!! Wild Bill (Northern Indiana)
Yeah I'd like to see a video on repairing a tire, always wondered how it was done.
Good idea about carrying a small rechargeable drill for aid with repairing a leaking tire. :)
19mm deep socket for rear wheel lug nuts, 12" or more section of pipe to use as a cheater bar on the ratchet, 22mm standard for front wheel axel nut. I prefer rawhide for patch cords, they seem to work better on steel belted tires.
I rewatched this video and was going to suggest the 19 and 22mm deep end sockets for exactly the reason you stated, but then I saw your comment. I have an 18” Harbor Freight breaker bar that slips nicely in my tool roll. I also have the torque specs added to my Notes app on my iPhone. I don’t carry a torque wrench but in an emergency, I can approximate how tight bolts should be until I can carefully bee line to a shop who can torque properly.
i have the bosch drill and they are great. Its great u can patch the tire. what about an inflator? i often cruise the back roads of east tn and a air pump may be hard to find!
Wow! I don't own a Goldwing yet, although the idea has crossed my mind; hence my reason for looking at your videos. Anyway in 52 years of riding most every day I have never considered carrying an electric drill on my travels (but then people did mock me when I said I packed a small hammer when I did a similar video on tools I carry on my old BMW). I guess that will be something to consider if I decide to go ahead and buy a GL1800 DCT.
Anyway I have only recently started perusing your content here and I look forward to watching more. Thanks for posting.
i always carried the cord from a parachute. super strong for something that's only about 3/16" thick
I was shocked when my 2019 DCT Tour had a strap for a tool kit in the left saddlebag but no tool kit. I didn't realize they didn't put those in any more so, I kept the tool kit out of my 2003 Goldwing and it has come in handy already.
Us Canucks get a toolkit with our bikes. Maybe I should take it out and do a quick video of what Honda expects us to need on the road.
Got my ultimate seat today. Tight fit. The pan is smelly and a tad sticky. They say ride a hundred miles for the "Ultimate " fit. This is wisconsin. Nights are in the 20s already. Nice backrest. Those 6mm bolts are a bitch. Have a good trip.
I always carry a flashlight that goes around your head so you can keep both hands free that being said always use a spare prescription pill bottle and put a couple of AAA batteries in it for the flashlight I also have those little red triangles that light up that you can get from harbor freight just in case it's emergency at night I can have those to set on the highway to flash as well as a 19 mm socket to remove the lug nuts on the wheel I also carry a lot of zip ties they always come in handy also another thing is a reflective vest that you can wear at night just in case you're on the side of the road and lose power, I don't smoke but I like to keep a bic lighter handy also
Good idea.
In case you're still looking for that *#@! 10mm socket... Here's a suggestion for socket organization, taken from a drawing included with the RevPack tool roll I bought over 30 years ago, when I still had my GL1500 (the bike is long gone, but the tool roll survives). My example works for 3/8 inch drive sockets, but you can adjust/experiment if you have 1/4 inch drive. Get a 6-inch long 1/4 inch carriage bolt and corresponding nut. I can slide the following sockets onto that bolt: 17, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8, and 7 mm, then screw the nut on to hold the whole thing together. Nice, compact, and solid.
PS: RevPack may (or may not) be out of business. Their web site is still up, but they had a post dated Oct. 2019 saying that the main man behind the business was considering retirement. Lots of stuff show "out of stock-check back later" type messages. Too bad - he made good stuff since the mid-70's. Time marches on...
12 volt air compressor to air the tire up after plugging
Damn CM, I got to check my tool bag. I carry one in each saddle bag. I ride a Harley (let's hear it), but I've not needed my tools since the late 70's. I really have tools to assist the GW when the break down. (LOL). I'm getting a good drill (no Harbor Freight) and a Jump Box. You are always on point... As far as tools go it's best to have them and not need them, that to need then and not have them. Same goes for long sleeve shirts...
The day you don't carry your tools is the day that you will need them.
If you have any aftermarket parts that need standard Allen wrenches like me, I'd carry a set of standard Allen wrenches, too. I've had the bolts on one of my highway pegs loosen up, and I was glad I had them.
I also carry an adjustable wrench, because you never know.
I keep spare fuses and pretty much the same tools you do
Man u r awesome
Really enjoy your videos. This one especially. I'll have to build up my emergency tool kit.
Also wouldn't mind a tire repair video.
Have you heard that it's not recommended to us motorcycle tires?
I had a flat awhile back. Was going to plug it but was told it wasn't a good idea by the Honda shop I use.
They're correct but think roadside flat miles from anywhere & no cell service. Fix it (you'll need a compressor too) and get home or to a shop to replace the tire.
What are you using for compressed air after the tire repair?
I carry just about everything you have there except I use Dynaplugs. The drill is a good idea.
I tried Dynaplugs once years ago and never could get them to work. I think I punched 3 of them into the tire before I gave up.
Yes!!! A video how to repair the tire would be great
Coming soon!
You forgot air pumper 😂. How to refill those tires after fixed.
Did I miss it? How do you reinflate the tire. ? I carry a Stop and go kit with air pump . An old Harley tool kit with a small pair of vice grips nitrile gloves , and an old towel for whatever. Going to look into the jump starter . Credit card and cell phone of course ! Thanks Oh and I've used the tire kit twice for others riding with me !
Over the years I've made a pretty sizable kit to carry when I ride. I'm sure I'm missing an item or two but here is my list:
E10 x E12 Torx box
Torx keys (T20, T25, T30, T40, T45, T50)
22mm hex adapter
Mechanics wire
E10 x E12 Torx box
Electrical tape
Cable ties
Spark plug socket
Spanner wrench
Needle nose pliers
Combination wrenches (8mm, 10mm , 12mm, 13mm, 17mm)
8" adjustable wrench
3/8" ratchet
2" extension
6" extension
Sockets (8mm, 10mmx2, 12mm, 13mm, 17mm, E8 Torx)
Hex keys (2mm, 3mm-6mm, 8mm)
6-in-1 screwdriver with bits
Locking pliers
Threadlocker
Small wire cutter/stripper
Tire plug kit w/air cartridges
Gerber multi-tool
Digital Tire pressure gauge
Wolfman Luggage M955 - Wolfy Tool Roll
Small trauma kit w/tourniquet and quick clot
Forehead light (rechargeable)
After you plug the tire, you need some way of inflating the tire, whether it be a pump or a can of compressed gas of some type.
Knock on wood that I have not needed to plug a tire while out n about but seeing a how too video would be great. Scott
How do you fill the tire after the repair?
Lacing wire, miniature vice grips
Hey Chris, like others I too want a tire repair video.
I carry a small VOM with me. You never know when an electrical gremlin will get you and a VOM is needed. You can pick one up at Harbor Freight for less than $20.
A tire repair video would be great
Set of fuses and small digital meter
no socket size for the 'eze' dropout rear tire for a tire change, if plug is not possible??? nfw
What do you do for air if you're not at a gas station or air outlet??
The drill is a good idea. After I get on the ground I’m like a beached seal.
What about an air compressor to inflate the tyre ?
Soooo, how are you going to fill the tire back up after you plug your tire?
I failed to mention that I have CO2 cartridges. I forgot them because they were in my trailer :)
If you use the drill, what do you use for air? Certainly won't have any type of reasonalble pressure left after doing that. A compressor, or CO2 cartridges? I'm going a a 9 week cross country trip in a few weeks, coast to coast. I carry both.
CO2 right now. Looking for a new compressor.
Compressor or CO2 cartridges?
After watching plug tire repair one question, what are you using to replenish air after repair? Thanks.
I have been researching portable tire inflators for months and have not found one yet that I "love". I hope to be testing a new one soon that shows a lot of promise..
How about an air compressor
How do you re inflate the tire after you fix it on the road?
I have one of the little CO2 cartridge inflators, but I had it in my trailer and forgot to show it in the video.
I also carry an air compressor.
You don’t carry a small air pump?
Barb wire for the harleys to help them out. LOL.
Where are your zip ties? I also like to keep some wet wipes to help clean up after the job.
I keep the Wet Ones in my center pocket. The cable ties were buried under my drill bits and I completely missed them :(
I want a shirt like that with one small revision: I would change the word "SOCKET" for "GLOCK" 😎
I like to have an air compressor
You didn’t mention the following that I carry: head lamp, zip ties, small roll of wire, small lamp with magnetic base, and small air pump.
Calling it what it really is. The tire reamer. A pain in the ass. Alan
Zip ties!
Didn't show any air pump/ cartridges for after tire repair. You don't need a drill BTW. Is not that hard to do. Additions: Rubber bands, duct tape
G23, you never know.
Window cleaner
Huh? So you can repair the flat tire but have no way to inflate it? Seems like you will have to tow the bike and in that case you could have towed to a tire repair shop
I am in the process of testing a few portable inflators, so I am without one at the moment.
A few years back I bought a tire inflator at our local auto supply store (Canadian Tire) that was on sale for $12. I figured if it worked just once it was worth the price. So far I have not had a flat but i have stopped to assist 3 riders with flat tires and that $12 inflator still works. Plus its quite compact. its slow but tire is inflated by the time I put my tire repair kit away! So hopefully your review includes some inexpensive inflators.
I don't see a medical kit or a tire filler in your collection.
I don’t ride a Goldwing. You show only tools for that ride. Not useful for me and I expect most other riders.
Go to the non Goldwing site 👀 for answers
It depends on the bike for sockets and wrenches. My Suzuki was metric and had a bunch of Torx. I suspect a Harley would want standard sockets and allen keys. My sister mentioned her 1st gen Can-Am has a few Robertson screwheads.
