Title: What do You carry under the Seat....Just In Case ?
Post by: dave55 on Thursday, 27 July 2023, 05:37 AM
I thought i better check the date on my can of Tyre Inflate and Fix. Sure enough out of date in 2012  :thumbs_down:  Good job it was not required eh?  :whistling:
Bought new can and wrapped and taped in a carrier bag and installed under the seat this afternoon.
It is just something i always keep there and reckon if it wasnt there i would need it, touch wood so far i have not ! That along with a roll of insulation tape, some spanners , cable ties and a Shits worth of toilet paper in a sealed food bag Just in case like :grin:
Just wondered what you guys keep for emergency under the seat Just In Case ?

I have a gearsack rack & bag fitted from brand new 👍 so I've never really used the underseat cavern (compared with most bikes)  :cheers:
I have a shopping bag with puncture repair kit, mini compressor, visor cleaner etc.
And I just take the bag with the bike I'm riding that day 😎

Bunch of certificates for non-oem parts that are considered "safety relevant" such as brake rotors, ss-brake hoses, etc. in case coppers want to see them.

Warning vest, in case I break down as they are required in at least one of the countries I ride in.

First-Aid-Kit.

Alarm disk lock.

Diag-switch already connected.

Coffee travel mug.

Mineral water.

Food.

Ditched the toilet paper as never needed it. Got enough tissues in my pockets for that case.

Wallet (with road side assistance card and insurance card), rolling tabak, lighter, cell phone, and spare ignition key in my pockets complete the stuff I lug around when riding.

I always keep bog roll in my jacket pocket, it's no good under your seat when you find there ain't any in the bog cos when you gotta go, you gotta go.
