Great idea! Never thought of these for the bike, I'll have to get a few.

ORIGINAL: berettag

I always carry Cryolight sticks. You shake them and brake them and get light for many hours. Can keep someone from running into you after the battery dies. I also carry tow straps, in the Lowers, in case I need to hitch a ride on a trailer.

there is a main breaker ( remember that thing we got recalls on a few years back) so there is no master fuse, per se. Spare fuses above and beyond the HD supplied ones are a good idea since the first thing you do when you find a blown fuse is replace it with the one spare fuse they gave you, the second thing you do is watch it blow because you don't know what caused it to blow in the first place.

and there is something to be said for still having run flat tires on my bike.
