If i am just out to play then its a wallet with bank cards and RAC card. Add in my mobile and thats it. Under the seat of the Ducati is a tool kit, puncture kit, cable ties and big alloy wheel removal socket.

If i am training with students on the Fazer then under the seat i take a choice of gloves depending on weather, some spanners, cable ties and gaffa tape as well as spare batteries, radio and earpiece.

CC, phone, extra battery & SD card for my camera.
Sometimes I carry six marbles.... I put 3 in a pocket & the other 3 in my hand.
Then I say to someone "I think you lost these.." They hold their hand out & I drop the 3 marbles in their hand.
If they say something like "I think you lost YOUR marbles" I produce the other 3 from my pocket & say "No, I still have all mine"

Which reminds me, I have to buy another bag of marbles...

What small puncture repair kit do people carry ?
I've got a big Holts can but it's too big to use without luggage (bought for long weekend France trips )

As Horse said, small kit with bungs, glue and gas canisters ....... turns out i had 2 under the seat. One i cant make out the brand was from my first Multistrada and the second one was an Italian made one in the newer Ducati when i bought it. I'll now move one to the Yamaha :thumbup:

Oh yes....also doubles up for the front one as well. Bought it before me and Adam went to Norway "just in case" and ended up needing it after the rear Bridgestone "touring" tyre wore out after 3500 and the only place within many miles with any bike tyre to fit was a truck maintenance place that sold some tyres. If i hadnt had the socket we/i would have been bolloxed ;)

Fortunately i also packed a 2 foot breaker bar rolled up in my kip mat on the back seat

Nothing, I'm not going to say why I never carry one or even invoke the number of times I might have needed to use one less I invoke the wrath of Murphey.
