What's in your fanny pack?

[skabeeb]

I'm not trying to get personal. Just wondering what others keep in their fanny pack at an enduro (tools, misc., etc.).

I used to carry some tools on my old XR 400 in a Moose fender bag. Last year at a Gulf Coast enduro the bag came open (and the tools ended up 1/4 mile back opn the trail) just as I was about to die of heat stroke so I said the heck with the tools and headed for the truck.

 

[KenR]

Leatherman wazoo tool (can't remember the model but it's big), 8mm on a 1/4" drive ratchet and extension, 10mm combo wrench, some safety wire, spark plug, plug wrench, zip ties, PowerBar, clutch lever, master link...I think that's it. Haven't been stranded yet.

 

[JPIVEY]

Pretty much the same as KenR; add small co2 pump, delete leatherman and change the power bar to a 12" subway sandwich and that's my bag :thumb:

ok, I was kidd'in about the sandwich

 

[firecracker22]

Hm, spare plug, KTM multi-wrench (spark plug, axle, etc), off-brand multi-tool, pliers, 10/13 combo wrench, 12mm wrench, safety wire, small ace wrap, powerbar, clean rag, swiss army knife, small assortment of bandages and tape, antibiotic ointment, Aleve, spare clutch lever.

Some of the stuff was already mentioned, but I also have:

• Two 8" tire irons
• Patch kit (make sure glue is not hardened)
• Fredette Riders Wrench (one tool that takes the place of three)
• Copy of drivers license, registration and insurance
• Bung wad (ya never know when nature is gonna knock on your back door)

most of that other stuff that these guys mentioned, included spare plug and wrench.  I also have a few Allen keys, a pair of wire cutters are very helpful, zip ties, no-fog cloth for goggles, paper towels (folded) some kind of food like power bars, gel, or peanut butter crackers.

John, you need to put in a master link encase I every ride with you again. I still owe Les one.

 

[dirt bike dave]

Farmer John is the guy you want behind you when you break down, that's for sure!

RetSenior - John probably has two or three spare master links in his pack or stowed somewhere on his bike, but he just forgot to mention it. ;)

I didn't have any 2 Moonrocks, but I have 2 now. 1 RK XSO which is the chain on my KX & 1 Regina thing that fits the KTM.

I have found that the RK standard masterlink which has small pins & no o-rings will fit just about any chain in a pinch.

Couple things I forgot to list:
Folding saw
Space blanket
Bic lighter
Box of waterproof matches

These things are in their own mini bag that clips on the side of my fanny pack.

[WideOpen]

I have a pack bolted on my rear fender, i hate wearing fanny packs while riding.

I have:
sparkplug
sparkplug wrench
mechanics wire
Leatherman
FRS radio

all wrapped up in rag and in 2 zip lock bags so its waterproof. It's nice to have a clean rag in a mud race if you need it.

 

[jacobone]

just a small rope come along to help me fish for my bike when thyey go under

 

[skabeeb]

Yeah ,
I used to put so much stuff in my fender bag that when it came open on mile 74 (and near heat stroke) I decided not only was I not going to go back to pick my long lost tools on the trail (I'm told never to ride backward on the trail), but I was going to find out what everybody else brings before I restock.
Thanks for all of the great advice.

FJ keeps all of that stuff in a small samsonite suit case that he zip ties to his chest protector.  I heard he inquired about having his rear shock revalved to compensate for the weight of a small air compressor that he was considering adding to his rear fender.   :)
