Useful stuff on your bike others may not have thought of...
 
What do you keep on your bike others might not have thought of? I have most of the usual stuff.. plastic zip ties, pliers, screw drivers, the toolkit that came with the bike, socket for the plugs, flashlight, etc..

Reading through this forum I've found some stuff that people have included that made me think that's a good idea and I would probably never have thought about it on my own.

The one I can think of right now is some spare CR2032 batteries for those with keyfobs in case they die. Useful for not only yourself but perhaps your riding partners as well.

Anyone else got any good ideas beyond the usual?

Do U really think we are going to admit it .???:D ( I reworded it, didn't come out right the first time)

My 07 Heritage has been Soooo dependable that I don't carry any tools, Except on trips of 1k or more I take some tape and a 8into1 screwdrive set.!!!.

Not all of us.

Just you.

Come to think of it, your kind of an a**hole, too.

I carry a spare battery, since I read of the "horror" story's here. And I carry some SPF 110 in my bag during the summer, since I'm prone to get skin cancer.

Plastic bags and those little bottles of energy boost.

A lawn and leaf sized trash bag.

Works as a great luggage rain cover, seat protector when parked in rain, something to lie on if trouble happens, etc.

Folds up inside the small ziplock I carry for wallet and cellphone in storms.

I have a small pill bottle with fob batteries, seperated by various sized O rings.

Haha! Not over 60 yet. Cupholder is one of my top 3 "mods" though. Everybody at work laughs their ass off when they see my bike...spitter prominently displayed.
