What is a MUST for you to have when riding?

[James Deuce]

I always carry:

1. Extra clutch lever - Bike falls over, breaks clutch lever, I'm fucked,

Pussy - you can still ride a bike with no clutch. I did it for 3 weeks.

Lol, if I'm wearing my leathers I can't take much (no pockets apart from bra, haha) in my cordura I might take a few more things but generally if it's just a day ride or local ride it'll be:

Bike
Phone
Wallet (if in leathers then just license and fuel money)
Tool kit (under the pillion seat)
Alarmed disk lock (under pillion seat)

Probably don't even need the tool kit as I have break down insurance (thanks JBI!) but I leave it there just in case.

[McDuck]

Well i am happy with cash and cell phone.

[MDR2]

Jees, never ever put that much thought into it.

Clothes (for the benefit of other motorists)
Wallet (If I remember)
Cellphone (if its charged, and i remember)
Ipod (if i feel like some self inflicted deafness)

Backpack is about the only other thing I _MUST_ ride with, just incease I pick up food or drink while out.

I know, I know, it's not the clutch I need, it's the lever.

Takes you a while to fix stuff doesn't it?

I never leave home without that, needless to say. I may be new around these parts, but I ain't stoopit!

[Grub]

I have been looking at all the stuff I carry with me when I ride. Over the years, there are a few MUST have items I take with me when I ride.

That's because you ride a Suzuki. I ride a Honda so I don't need most of that stuff

I do however have
* puncture lit
* bike tool kit
* Phone bluetoothed to helmet
* Backpack kit includes extra cold/wet weather and utility gear like
- polypropelene thermal inner gloves
- extra jersey
- longjohns (if not wearing them)
- phone charger
- helmet charger
- Quickeze (some road food is ... well ...)
- Panadol
- small torch
- spare key
- spare glasses

The last time we had this type of thread, I said "a rubber chicken" and got infracted for it.
So I won't mention it in this thread.
