So... what's in your tank or tail bag?

For a short trip (no more than 200 miles, back home the same day),
what do you carry with you?

Last time, I had...
- sunglasses
- hat
- MF towel for cleaning visor
- small water bottle


how about the rest?

 

2 water bottles, tubless tyre patch kit, snacks, Maps, Springfield custom 3" .45 & 4 magazines :wink: .

 

Tail bag. Has cell phone,a phone number list Camera, water/juice, candy bar or beef stick, extra battery's, Leatherman tool, Zip ties, band aids & ointment; small spray can of Plexus cleaner with a couple cleaning rags, small towel. a couple bucks in spare change. some times a map.

 

tank bag has bungee cords, towel, hat, small tools, toll road transponder, $5 in small change, Detonics Combatmaster in .45ACP, phone.
Side bags have sunscreen, paper towels, battery powered air pump, tire patch kit, spare shirt.

 

nothing more than a cell phone or a small tank bag with a cell phone and some small extras. It would have to be a multi tank trip to carry more.

 

In AZ? WATER. Some change for a Coke. My contents change according to time of year and destination. Sometimes no tank bag at all.

 

A Springfield!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where do you live Bro. I guess you use too live in CA.................

 

Weed, hookers and porn! Oh my!

 

I was determined!
Actually I'm being a smart-ass cuz I think these types of questions are kinda funny...
like the thread about washing ear plugs.eace:

 

I ride with a buddy that packs his XD45 when he rides. I always thought that it was a little unnecessary but am now seeing that it is not so uncommon. So I have to ask the question... why pack when you are out for a ride? One thing that I've learned is don't car jack (bike jack?) viffer owners!!

 

Somebody's buddy had issues. I can't think of a reason to carry a firearm while riding. But then, I'm a peaceful guy.

 

gas in the tank, LOL. Seriously, MP3 player, 2way radio, extra mp3 player, disc lock, tire gauge, money, lighter, shield cleaner paper towels ,and occasionally a camera in tank bag.

 

Mmm... better add some condoms to that mix. :smile:

 

Ya know, you're right! I can't have my weed getting wet in the rain!

 

straps, sunglasses, extra gloves, tire gauge, camera, radio ,handgun, hard liquor!

 

Ok, I'm kinda old for a sport bike guy (if a VFR is considered a sport bike) so I understand the hard liquor, but the handguns... what are you guys so afraid of??

 

I carry too though not ALL the time.

So for most rides:
a few assorted tools (that dont come with the factory tool kit)
MF towels
disc lock
change $$
zipp ties
assorted electrical connectors/tape
map
and whatever I'm drinking that day.

Sometimes packable rain gear
