Tire Plug Kits - Do you carry one?
#41
I use this one http://www.slime.com/docs/view_image....5714285714286 and a plug kit. I like it because it has a built in gauge. also it pumps slow enough to use on the rear shocks.

I carry a typical tar-coated plug kit with glue, rasp, and insertion tool--as well as a small compressor that plugs into the cig lighter. These have gotten me out of spots more than once and I wouldn't go anywhere without them.

Flat Repair
I have been carrying the stop & go plug kit along with a slime 12V compressor. Also have a bottle of slime along, running cast wheels on my 05 FLHRCI. Carry the slime for the other halfs 07 FXDL with spokes. I keep a good eye on the tires and pressure and have not needed to use them yet, although my time is coming, 49,000 miles and no flats yet!

1st day blowout
Last week, on the 1st day of a 6 day Lake Superior Circle Tour from MN, one of our bikes picked up a nail and was losing air. I had my MC compressor and a plug kit, so we fixed it that night in camp and rode the rest of the trip. Without it we would have lost 1/2 to a whole day obtaining, mounting, a replacing the tire as the nearest Harley Shop was 75miles away from our campground.
