Tool kit for trip. - Missy_Moo - 09-03-2010
Ok as I've planned a hike around the countryside for myself. I've been thinking, I should put together a few handy items (just in case).
I'm on the lookout for some handy suggestions from those out there in the know.
I've always had a little kit with me in the 4WD or utes for the sole purpose of just in case, I'd better sort out one for the bike.
cheers MM

A hammer and a roll of duct tape. Ya can fix anything with that combo.
Check out the link below. It's a full 'just about everything' tool kit checklist that you can tick, update and print as per what you choose. Might be easier to work up a good kit when you can see a full list of everything in front of you first.

Take three canisters of air in case you get caught between towns with a flat. If you feel ambitious, go the puncture repair kit. A can of chain lube is essential. Don't take any tool that you don't know how to use, gaffa and cable ties and an occy strap will fix a suprising amount.
RE: Tool kit for trip. - Missy_Moo - 09-03-2010
lol thanks Heidi, I do love the last 3 items you mentioned. They were essentials in my 4WD and towing horse trailers around the country side & in the Ute trips.

Oh, and don't forget your spare key.
*cough* no reason.
RE: Tool kit for trip. - Missy_Moo - 09-03-2010

Gaffa tends to sort those two out quick smart.

I can only lead myself astray....
I have drugs that sort out elements like that

The absolute cannot leave home without it tool is a girl's best friend - Your mobile phone. As long as you have a network anyway! lol.
Heidi is absolutely right - Gaffa and then some more gaffa willget you out of most break-ups anyway.
Sorry I'm going to miss your trip girl. Sounds like an epic.
Call into the Mater Miseracordia in North Sydney on your way through perhaps! I's love to see your setup!
Cheers and a safe ride mate.

I am old enough to have travelled before the lovely invention of mobile phones (I am that old) lol....But your right, never leave home without one.
It's not epic but it'll be a hell of a lot of fun, which is exactly what I need.
Who knows, if I venture into Sydney I will give you a holler.

Three quickest modes of communication - 1 Telegram, 2 Telephone, and 3 Tell a Woman lol
You're going to have a great trip mate. I'll be laying in bed doing exercises so Ican get back onto the '06 Busa. God I miss her.
I hope you have a great trip mate and a safe one.
Cheers

One of those Anderson prop stand's are fantastic. For 45 buck's you then have an easy way to clean & lube the chain at the end of each day .Unless your clever enough to be able to slowly roll the bike & spray lube on at the same time by yourself ,or take a mate .Cable ties will fix a lot of thing's .
