For Emergency
What you need in an emergency
Below are list of items you may need when riding a motorcycle. This safety gear is used for all levels of riders.
| Item | Description | Image |
|---|---|---|
| Roll-Top Dry Bag | If you're going to put together an emergency motorcycle bag, you kind of have to start with the bag itself. The bag you choose should be compact, ruggedly built and waterproof. |  |
| Multitool | Carrying a multitool is kind of a no-brainer for a motorcycle rider. The odds are good that you'll need some sort of knife or pliers or screwdriver at some point that's in an easily accessible spot so you can avoid having to break out your other tools. I love this Leatherman because it's compact, and the pliers are spring-loaded. |  |
| Adventure Medical Kit | Whether it's getting stung by a bee when you're riding, burning yourself on a hot exhaust pipe, or even dealing with blisters from a new pair of riding boots, there are many reasons to carry a basic first-aid kit. |  |
| Rechargable LED Headlamp | Breakdowns or crashes don't only happen during daylight hours, and I know from experience that trying to fix something on your bike while laying in the dirt and trying to prop your phone up, so the light on it stays in the right place is lame. |  |
| Zipties | If you're in a pinch, you can fix just about anything with the judicious use of zip ties and swearing. |  |
| Tire Plug Kit | If you're going to put air in your tire after a flat, you first have to make sure your tire is air-tight, right? The good news is that most modern motorcycles come with tubeless tires, so doing a roadside repair on a puncture is often as simple as using a plug kit. |  |
