oh the humanity
bummage. (Godspeed Bruce) photo by Steve Smith
“I love the physical connection between the bike and me. I love the way it puts my nervous system on high alert, making me use the ‘hard’ and peripheral vision simultaneously, keeping my net of consciousness spread wide. I love the
alignment of body and bike, and the graceful kind of dance while riding it. I love being able to cut through traffic
and overcome impediments. I love the ‘machine-y’ sounds of the motor, the clunk of a good shift, the sounds of
pushrods, tappets, rocker arms, and gear whirring and clicking and tapping. I wear an Aerostich suit with back-protector most of the time. I like doing my own mechanical work, but for anything that requires a hoist, I send it out to
the shop. There’s another oldie-but-goodie mechanic (like me) who rides an old airhead, and they really take good
care of the bike.”
- Actor/writer Peter Coyote, Interview in Winding Road Motorcycle Times, May/June 2004.
In 1969, Peter Coyote and friend Bill Fritsch shared with their ‘Hollywood’ friends Peter
Fonda and Dennis Hopper the biker and road trip ideas that became the basis for the
movie Easy Rider.

Digital Tire Gauge ProGauge
A round bodied, rubber armored and thusly rugged tire gauge with a handy angled extension to
reach those tire valves. Accurate and uh, digital, so those of you who are analog-averse get to see
an actual number in front of you which is kinda nice.
#4502 $37.00
Accu-Gage
This easy-to-read and accurate 2" dial gauge features a full geared precision movement with
bronze Bourdon tube and rubber shock absorber. Swivel end for easy positioning around brake
rotors. Measures 0-60 psi.
With Hose #2513 $24.00
Without Hose #2503 $20.00
Accutire® Keychain
Vigil Tire Gauge
If Jules Verne ever were to pull a tire gauge out of his pocket, it would likely look like this charming and accurate bit of Gallic engineering. Made of
some sort of rigid plastic (bakelite, perhaps?) and suitable for Schraderstyle valve stems, the Vigil also has a zero reset button. Reads to 60 psi and
has a sub-scale in Euro-style bars or some damn
thing. One swanky tire gauge. 3.5" x 1.5" x
0.5".
Reading from 5-60 psi, this may not be the highest quality
gauge in the whole world, but ifit’shandyand getsused, it’s
better than a super-duper one at home in your toolbox.
Accurate to 1 psi, this instrument is powered by a permanent lithium battery, andis small, cheap, and lightenough to
bethere when you need it. A tire gauge in the hand isworth
two elsewhere…
#3549 $8.00
#4503 $33.00
ThreeBond Seal ’N’ Air
Topeak Smart Gauge
A compact tire gauge great for storage and carrying and is accurate to
half a pound. An easy reading LCD. The ergonomic shape provides an
easy view of the digital pressure measurements. Simple to use, and it
beeps. Can be used on both Presta and Schrader tubes (Which is great
if you also ride bicycles.) Battery included. 3.9" x 2" x 1.2".
#2530 $20.00
Not necessarily the best way to repair a tire, but one that will
get you to the next town or to a shady/protected area to do it
right. Works by filling the tire with a foaming latex-like
fluid that seals the hole, and will fill a tire to moderate pressure in around 20 seconds. Tire pressure
will increase gradually as you ride. Will not work
on large holes or sidewall punctures. Could
potentially save a weekend or a trip itinerary.
Bear in mind, however, that when you
remove the tire for permanent repairs, it’s
gonna be full of this stuff. We warned you.
With attached fill hose.
#3574 $8.00
Flaig Tire Gauge
Pro Stick/Pencil Gauge
Just like dad had, but probably better.
Constructed of solid metal for durability, this gauge reads 10-50 psi and has
an easy reading 4-sided indicator bar
and a pocket clip, just like the good old
days. Small, light, surprisingly accurate, and itfitsin the tankbag real good.
Which is good because having it along
means you’ll use it. "Check the air,
ma’am?"
#3550 $3.00
This is one serious measuring
device for your tires.
German-built and calibrated to 1% of scale value per
DIN spec 74720, this gauge is
ruggedly constructed with an alloy shell, rotatable/resettable 60psi
dial bezel, and a release button to record pressures. If you are critical about
your tooling (and your tires), this belongs in your shop or toolkit. Superlative.
#4603 $30.00
NoLoss Valve Cap
Losing air from a motorcycle tire can have grave consequences. Manufacturers themselves state that an uncapped
tire stem is not secure from leakage without a sealed cap.
These practical and well-made knurled stainless steel valve
caps provide that final seal, and have flexible retainers that
ensure you won't misplace them. Neat.

Tube/Tubeless Tire Repair Kit
A newly designed compact unit that
accepts either threaded or unthreaded CO2
cartridges, the Ultraflate is a lightweight tool
that will fit in the smallest tool kit and fill a tire
in a hurry. A lever enables air delivery modulation for a controllable fill. Nose of unit threads
onto Schrader valves, and will press onto presta types found on bicycles. A neat way to be on
your way faster.
The ultimate compact emergency tire service kit.
Comes with everything needed to repair either tube or
tubeless tires, including CO2 cartridges, flex adapter
connector, cement, patches, plugs, and installation tools.
All neatly organized in a zippered nylon pouch only the
size of a pack of smokes.

SINGLE 25 GRAM CYLINDER (WITH THE AIR
CHUCK FITTING) WILL DO THE SAME JOB.
Stop & Go Pocket Plugger
Repair tubeless tires without removing them from the rim with this compact and effective kit.
Using mushroom-shaped plugs, the Stop&Go will stop leaks and get you on your way. 15
plugs are supplied, and an innovative set of tools for repairing your tire includes an
insertion tool that utilizes an allen wrench to turn an integral ram, minimizing the
human effort required to seat the plug securely. Measuring only 3.5" x 7.5" and
weighing only 12oz., this kit is easy to have along and use.
#4604 $32.00
Engineair Power Pump
An engine-powered air pump designed to inflate tires using the engine’s cylinder as an air compressor. This premise
is vaguely alarming but actually quite well thought out. A pump unit threads into one of the engines spark plug
holes, and as the engine runs/spins, fresh, clean air is pumped to the tires. Inflating a motorcycle tire takes
less than one minute and is completely safe for your engine andignitionsystem. The cylinder pump pulls air
from the atmosphere, ensuring no gas or oil fumes turn your Metzeler's into a Hindenburg wannabe.
RiderWearHouse exclusive kit includes a 60" quick-release air hose and 18, 14, 12, and 10 mm adapters for
all spark plug openings. (Other versions of this product are bulkier and contain extra components. This is just
the essentials.) Works with all multi-cylinder 2, 3 or 4 stroke engines.

∏ TTI
(Titanium Tar Arn)
If you want to be able to change or repair a tube or tubeless tire while on the road, you’ll need to pack along tire irons to get the tire
off the rim. They don’t call 'em irons for nothing… Conventional tire irons are plenty heavy, especially for something you may never
use (except in your garage workshop), so we developed these high-tech supersonic aerospace versions to lighten your load and help
you change tires in a swank, ultralight manner. Surprisingly there was quite a bit of trial-and-error and design detail work to
get the exact best radiuses for the curved spoon ends. Some irons make you fight with the job, but these work easily and make it harder to accidentally pinch a tube. One pair weighs only 4.4 oz., compared to 9-12 oz. for
typical steel tire irons. Great for carrying on trips and for street, off-road, and dual sport riding.
A super high-tech tool for a Stone Age job, these beauts are that rare combination
of the exotic and utterly practical. 9.25" long.

#3576 $15.00
A functional neoprene sleeve that holds two
tire irons and prevents them from bouncing
around and wearing holes in your pack. (Tire
irons not included.)
#2400 $7.00
Bead Breaker
This tool is essential for changing tubeless type tires. It will break the bead on any motorcycle
wheel that is open in the middle (any wheel with regular or cast spokes). Separates into component parts that can be rolled in a pack and carried on trips, … but is really a little larger and
heavier than most riders will want to carry. Best kept at the ready in your garage workshop,
this bead breaker will become a key part of your tool arsenal. Makes fast tire changes simple
and easy, … and shreds millions of julienne fries in seconds. Nicely welded steel with a
durable cad plated finish. Adjustable for all widths of wheels and all sizes of tires. 18" long.
Includes instructions.
#3551 $60.00
Wheel Balancer
Avoid the expense, downtime and trouble of arranging tire changing services at a shop and gain the satisfaction of knowing the job was done perfectly (and ready just when you need it). With this balancer and
a couple of tire irons (plus a bead breaker for tubeless types) anyone can get a precision balanced tire in
a few minutes. Slowlyspin, markthe lowspot, repeat, add temporaryweight,spin, mark,repeat,re-weight,
spin, repeat, etc… Whenwheel always stops at random points, securely attach the required weights and
the job is finished. Ultra-low friction bearings make the weighing process very sensitive to the smallest
change in weight and position for super accurate results. Finely finished, strong extruded aluminum frame
with multiple axles and cones for all size wheel bearings. Comes with some self adhesive weights, too. Also
works great as a wheel lacing stand. Save time and money while getting a better quality result and the satisfaction of doing it yourself… definitely a New Age* balance. (BMW Paralever wheel adapters available from
BMW.)

Aluminum Tire Lever/Wrench Combos
Great for trail or roadside repairs. These hard anodized, aluminum tools are box wrenches on one end and an efficient tire iron on the other. You can
remove both the axle and the tire with one tool. Replace the flimsy factory tool kit wrenches. If you have wrenches for both your front and rear axle, that
means you’ll have two irons for wrestling your flat off, and after patching, back onto the
rim. Wrenches are under 10" long and fit nicely in a tool roll. Neat.

12V 100psi Compressor
Compact and lightweight, the Sparrow is a 12v inflator with a built-in pressure gauge
and is smaller than many inflators of this type. Pumping to a maximum of 100 psi, this
unit operates on 10-13.5 volts and draws approximately 10 amps through its alligator
clip-equipped power cord. It will pump a car tire to 29psi in under 8 minutes, meaning
motorcycle tires won't take as long. Use electricity instead of the 'armstrong' method
to get rolling again. 5.5"H x 4.5"L x 2.5"W.
#4612 $25.00
12V 150psi Compressor
Sometimes when there is some serious inflating to be done, hand pumps can
get to be more of a workout than some people would like. As when filling the just-repaired 200-section meat on the back of your buddies’
hyperbike. The compressor includes a cigarette lighter power
cord which stores inside the device and adapter tips for things
like footballs and all the other stuff you would normally blow up
with your lungs like mattresses. Top pressure is 150 psi and the
unit is claimed to fill a medium-sized car tire in 5 to 8 minutes,
which means motorcycles should go a little quicker. If you’ve
been wanting a 12 volt air compressor, this is the best of its
kind we’ve seen. 9" x 3" x 2.5", 23 oz.
#4504 $40.00
Cycle Pump Air Compressor
A very nicely made, purpose-built inflator for motorcycle use. Contained in a sturdy
aluminum case, this 12V pump will inflate a motorcycle tire in 2 minutes and will top up
those round black things quicker than that. Not only is it great to have a device like this around for
repairing flat tires, it'salso handy for adjusting tire pressures when adventure touring or dual-sporting.
Without getting out the manual pump or perhaps putting it off and not enjoying that loose, miles-long
stretch of dirt track as much as you might. Free yourself from pressure anxieties with the Cycle Pump.
Measures a mere 2" x 4" x 6" and weighs but 24 oz.
#3595 $80.00
Power Pump
More Power! This pump has a larger barrel than many compact pumps and consequently huffs the
air into tiresfaster. Using apatented dual piston design, the Power Pump has a dual ‘hammer head’
that fits both Schrader and Presta valve stems. Also featured is a readily visible air pressure gauge
that will tell you of your progress in an accurate manner. A mounting bracket that protects the business end of the pump and mounts to a frame tube is included. 9.3" long.
#4505 $30.00
Air Stik
Compact and capable of 160+ psi, which should take care of just
about anything. Pumping air on both the front and back strokes
makes things happen twice as fast, as well as keeping the overall
length down to 11", which means it can fit in any number of unobtrusive places and be ready should you need it. Ruggedly built and quite attractive with
its aluminum finish and black structural plastic detailing. Plus it has a lifetime warranty.
#3506 $22.00
SmartTire Pressure Monitor
An early warning system that continuously checks tire pressure and temperature while you are moving. The SmartTire’s small, bright waterproof digital display mounts anywhere and includes a bright warning icon giving advance
notice of a problem. (You preset its warning thresholds.) The display receives
its data wirelessly from two lightweight sensors that do not affect the normal
balancing of the tires. Simple-to-install-and-easy-to-use: a reliable safety technology advance. For tubeless tires only.

The MAT
Designed for use with bikes that have centerstands, the MAT will
enable you to turn yourbike 180 degrees in a limited space. Kind of like
Batman. Which is good if you have limited space for turning your bike
around. Made of polycarbonate that has been machined by a flat bed
laser cutter to tight tolerances ensuring smooth operation, the MAT is
a handy device for storing and using your bike. Turning a bike around
to drive it out of a door is much easier than dragging it backwards.
Requires a fairly smooth garage floor. Handles up to 600 lbs max load.
#3508 $78.00
Quick Stand
Your high-spec sportbike shaves pounds and gains ground clearance by not having a centerstand. Great. Or it would be, if you never needed to lube the
chain. Although your home shop may have a full-sized swingarm stand, what happens when you’re out on the road? Taking up the same space as a pair
of sunglasses and weighing only 6.5 oz, the collapsible Quick Stand will enable you to raise the rear wheel off the pavement enough to rotate the tire for
inspection, chain lubing, or stop a leak with a plug-type repair. Handy and necessary on long trips to maintain your chain. Nicely made of aircraft grade
aluminum alloy. Fits most sport bikes including: Aprilia Mille, SL100, Falco 1000, Honda RC 51 (00 only), Kawasaki ZX 6R, 7R, 9R,12R, ZRX 1100, 1200, Suzuki
GSX1300R, Hayabusa, GSXR 750, 1000, 1100, RVF 600R, 900R, TL 1000S, SV650, Yamaha YZF (all). A swingarm spool fitting is required. If your bike does not
include one, these are available from race equipment suppliers and dealers. Call or email for additional specific application information.

8MM Spool #4523 $17.00
Bike Krutch
If you have a big heavy touring bike, this doubles as a second, triangulating side stand for maximum security in windy places or on insecure surfaces. It
can also be used with your bikes sidestand to prop the rear tire off the ground for chain lubing. Designed for H-D’s but fits anything with a frame or bracket that’s within it’s length range. Min. 8"-Max. 13".
#4524 $27.00
∏ Titanium Sidestand Plate
Well, if titanium is good enough to build high-performance fighter aircraft out of, it stands to reason it will suffice to keep
your bike from falling over. Measuring 2.5" x3.5", this thing isasthin and hard as Clint Eastwood on a bad day, and will keep your
scoot up and off of the soft stuff in high metallurgical style. Waay cooler than a stomped beer can. Dood.

CHAIN OILERS CAN TRIPLE THE LIFE OF YOUR BIKE'S
CHAIN AND SPROCKETS.
HawkeOiler
A compact chain-lubing system that operates from a solenoid activated pump which is easy to install.
Developed by a long-distance rider, the HawkeOiler’spositive displacement configurationwill handle either
heavy or light types of oil and it’s self-priming design ensures that the oil is going to go where it’s supposed
to. The system is manually controlled via a switch on the handlebar which enables the rider to trigger oil
flow at optimum times (Like after a rain shower or a dirt road detour, etc....) for maximizing chain longevity.
#4525 $157.00
Scottoiler
The best way to encourage chain longevity is to make sure you lube it on a regular basis. Scottoiler
is a great way to go. Metering lube just a little at a time while you are riding, the Scottoiler is a great
'set it and forget it' way to deliver lubrication to the critical "link" in your bikes drivetrain. Operating off
of engine vacuum (the engine is unaffected), this device delivers an adjustable, precisely metered
amount of oil to the inside of the chain run near the rear sprocket, and centrifugal force and capillary
action ensure that oil gets to all parts of the links and plates comprising your chain (and not any extra
on your wheel and tire). A must for long distances and bad weather, the Scottoiler will prolong both
o-ring and standard chain life as well as lengthening the time between adjustments. Also, because
the chain is lubed while you ride, the warmth of the operating chain takes oil better than a cold one.
A quality product, used for over 10 years in the British Isles, in the midst of what they sportingly call
'weather'. Fits all chain-drive bikes and installs in a neat factory-look manner. An overdue product
and one which works very well. Can more than double the life of a chain and sprocket set. Standard
Model hasa 50cc reservoir for a 500-1000mi. range. The Touring Model has a 400cc reservoir a40008000 mi. range and fits behind the license plate. (Note: You can refill with many types of oil.) The dual
injector increases the efficiency of all Scottoilers by accurately delivering oil directly to both sides of
the chain.

DUAL INJECTOR
Loobman Chain Luber
A manually operated and simple chain luber that has no moving parts, and no attachment to the engine or carburetor is required. Loobman will fit any motorcycle and is easily installed. Any kind of oil can be used
with this unit (Loobman recommends ordinary engine oil), and although this is the low-tech
approach to on-bike chain oiling, it is vastly superior to spraying lube on your chain at irregular
intervals while out on the road. The ability to hit the chain with lube while operating will extend
chain life considerably, which is not to be taken lightly as the per-link cost of a quality chain
is not exactly cheap. The Loobman is both economical to buy and makes your chain last
longer. Win win.
#4526 $37.00
Cable Luber + Lube
Designed for use with aerosol lubricants, this device has the capacity to lubricate cables from 3/16" to
3/8" diameter which should cover just about anything. The included lube is specially formulated
to minimize friction in control cables. Cables get dry and need attention periodically, and the
degradation in feel and performance is gradual and insidious. Not only will this device keep
your cables lasting longer, it makes riding less effort. Belongs in everybody’s toolbox.

Boeshield T-9
Going beyond the stuff available at the hardware store, Boeshield was developed by the aviation industry giant Boeing, as a protective coating that penetrates deeply into fasteners and fixtures, displaces moisture and attacks corrosion, and then drys to a
clean waxy film. Not only that, but it will help loosen rusted parts and will not harm paints, plastics, or vinyl. Useful for all the
places you’d use more pedestrian formulations like clutch cables, pivots and linkages, and even battery terminals and other
wiring that may be exposed to the elements. Good stuff. 4 oz.

Bruno Wessel Stud Insertion Tools
Ordinary sheet metal screws bite fine on ice but are quickly ground away on paved surfaces. For mixed surface winter
riding, the way to have long wearing carbide tipped studs is with one of these guns. The standard model shoots a low profile automotive type 9 x 13mm carbide tipped stud that leaves surrounding rubber in contact with the road. This allows
street riding on mixed snow and ice pavement. Warning: Maximum tire grip is
9 X 17-20
reduced compared to un-studded tires. Ride with care while learning the capabilities of studded tires. Each tire will take from 200-500 studs. The Rally model
shoots 9x 17mm or 9x 20mm off-road studs. These spikyanimals are suitableonly
for use in dirt/dual sport tires. They should not be used for street riding applications as the tire’s rubber will not be in contact with the road on paved surfaces. On
frozen lakes and dirt roads they are fine and last much longer than sheet metal
screws, but the raised carbide tips don't provide enough traction for safe riding on pavement. Both tools requirea 100 psi supply of compressed air to operate and you'll need to drill each tire to accept the studs. Comes with instructions and a diploma certifying that you are off the deep end. Manual Mini Feeder fits
both guns, but is not essential if you are only doing 1 or 2 tires.

Canyon Dancer Bar Harness
It’s a fact that tying down a fully-faired motorcycle presents challenges when it comes to not crunching bodywork. Sometimes you can get up under the front to the lower triple tree, and sometimes you just can’t,
due to the angles and all that. Enter the Bar Harness. It’s a compact unit that slips over your bar grips
and has a polar fleece padded strap that crosses over the bike and features loops off the ends for
attaching your standard tie downs to. Which means that the tie down straps are held well awayfrom
any of that bustable, expensive plastic and your bike is held securely as well.
Constructed using 5500 & 1200 lb. tensile webbing. Black with red cuffs. If you need it, you need it.

Autoswitch
Eliminate auxiliary toggle switches and their attendant holes by installing this device which ties into your light wiring. The
standard model takes a 1-second (positive) pulse from your high beam switch to turn driving lights or fog lights on or off independently. The BMW version takes a negative (ground) .08 second pulse from the turn signal ‘cancel’ button to switch any
auxiliary lights or relays on or off. A quicker tap still cancels the turn signals normally. The pulse sensor technology is reliable
and efficient. Neat.

DooDad Switch
A nicely streamlined mini-toggle switch because it’s encased in an injection-molded housing, which just happens to fit on 7/8" handlebars perfectly. Which is a good thing if you have an electrical gizmo to
activate/deactivate in a nicely streamlined way. Used by itself, it will turn smaller items on (up to 6
amps@12V), but if you are going to switch the big stuff, like really large lights or a 10 foot propeller
beanie, we’d recommend a 12V relay in conjunction. Imagine being able to activate your 'Illuminated Arm Jester' with the
flick of a thumb. Amazing. Also wonderful for electric grips, etc… Comes with an attached 34.5" long 2 wire insulated cord.

Spinning/Flashing Taillight Bulb
Cyberbulb tech from Japan and probably not legal for road use everywhere in the
land of the free, but still fun. It might get you an interview with a patrol officer...and
you could receive a ‘fix it’ ticket (and possibly a lecture), but...uh getting this kind of
citation dismissed might only be a matter of switching back to a regular bulb. That’s
lots easier than re-wiring a separate bulb ‘modulator’ control box. In use, eleven
bright bulbs continuously/sequentially ‘spin’....until you use your brakes. Then they
all flash on and off together at double intensity. Fits all bikes with #1157 two filament
bulbs (which is just about everything). Legal disclaimer: May not be Street Legal in all
states. Specify White, Red, or Rainbow type.
#2540 $37.00
LED Taillight Bulb
Replaces the common #1157 two pin, two filament auto tail/stoplight bulb that’s probably in your bike
right now. Eleven perimeter red LED’s provide the taillight, and an oversize center LED is the brake
light. LED bulbs have a much greater lifespan andwill withstand vibrations better thanall conventional incandescent bulbs soyou’ll have less chanceof being caught with no taillight on a dark road. Bright
but draws less juice. Tech: Taillight draws 15 Ma vs. 590 Ma for regular bulbs. Brakelight draws 60 Ma vs.
2100 Ma for a regular bulb. (Thanks to Ralph Noble for these measurments.) It may be the last taillight bulb you’ll
ever buy. 12V.

30 LED Tailight
Thirty blazing high-output LED's announce your posterior's presence and/or your intent to brake. Securely embedded in resin, these super-bright lighting units are both dust and moisture-resistant and will far outlast conventional

twist) replacement for standard 1157 units.

This complex pattern is commonly and intuitively recognized as a deceleration warning. The bulb’s reliable digital electronics are all contained inside the bulbs base. It uses a widely available, easily replaceable ‘G-4’ halogen bulb. (An easy to carry extra is also included.)
Fits standard #1157 dual filament brake/taillight bulb sockets. Legal disclaimer: May not be approved for use in all states.

follow a bit aggressively and whether they’ve seen us or not. This should help as the dual LED modules are quite
dazzling when turned on. This is a universal kit and includes two 8 LED units, a
flasher, connectors, and instructions. Each light is only 0.25" x 1".

Protecting Eye Candy
“Anything that makes the departure and arrival rituals less time-consuming and annoying helps make the m/c a more
useful tool for actual transportation.” -Steven L. Thompson
Daily ridden bikes stand out more than ever as attractive high value crime targets for vandals and thieves. When riding for transportation and
you are away from your bike for short periods, having to use a secondary apparatus is a pain. If you don’t want to deal with the inconvenience of
a cable, chain, disc or U lock, then consider an anti-tampering and anti-theft alarm system. Though not a substitute for a cover and a big lock, an
alarm system will help make your bike more secure.
Almost all new cars have a key fob door lock remote. A button is much easer to use five times a day, than a manual lock. On motorcycles they
make even more sense. Simply stop at your destination, turn off the key, extend the side stand, and walk away...while removing your helmet and
gloves and 'buttoning-on' a motion or pager alarm.
Few employers, retailers, landlords or governmental units provide secure motorcycle parking areas. A motion-detecting alarm will let you feel
better about leaving your bike in front of a store (or anyplace else...) while inside. Imagine your alarm’s pager going off while browsing in a video
store and then running outside and seeing creeps rolling your bike into a van. Yikes! In this scenario, you have the presence of mind to get the
truck license number and immediately call 911. Three miles away the thieves are arrested...and you get your bike back.
With an alarm you’ll feel more comfortable about leaving your motorcycle in a mall lot, urban ramp, or street parking space. With an alarm you
will ride more every day.

This tiny alarm helps keep your valuable things from ‘walking off’. If the

transmitter in your helmet or put it in a pocket and place the alarm on the bike. Then lay your jacket over the
saddle and your helmet on the handlebar and walk into a gas station for a bottle of cold water. While you are
paying, someone comes along and decides to steal. The perp takes two steps and suddenly "Keeeeee!!!".
Another petty crime of opportunity is foiled. The only thing that remains is to decide to press charges or not.

We all know of the hallowed material known as duct tape, and how it can fix any number of maladies while on the road.
(Bashed, dragging bodywork, etc.) Problem is, it comes on really large spools and is pretty clunky to pack and have around
when you need it. Packed two to a bag with much smaller diameter and weather-resistant plastic spindles, GearAid’s mini
duct tape rolls are the real thing. They're also just that much more likely to go into your on-road repair kit and be there when you
need them. Handy, and at times, indispensable. Two 2" x 100" rolls in classic gray.

all-purpose spray cleaners found in grocery stores (Simple Green, etc...)...but it doesn’t attack

your bikes finish. It’s also more cost-effective...about a third less than imported
cleaners. An industrial strength pre-wash detergent formula is specifically made
for cleaning and/or degreasing. This stuff can safely be used on plastic, paint,
aluminum, vinyl, rubber, fiberglass, battery terminals, and surfaces of all
types. The expected spray head is an Owens Brockway Trigger Sprayer,
the best adjustable squirter available. Contains an earth friendly blend of
water soluble surfactants and no alcohol, oils, ammonia, or phosphates. It
isboth non-abrasive and biodegradable. Your bike will shine when you ride
and be a lot nicer to work on when you need to do that. Less harmful than
a pressure washer. Less work than a soapy bucket. Faster too.

Cat Repellent
B
Cats. They’re nice pets. They also like to go places and do things that can be displeasing and destructive....either for attention or out of some sheer feline perversity we’ll never understand. Like digging up or eating houseplants. Or walking or
sleeping on freshly-waxed surfaceslike car hoods or motorcycle gas tanks. They also leave cat hair on things you’d rather
C
they didn’t and scratch things they ought not to. "Bad kitty. Get
outta there!" Alternatively, there is this exotic Japanese Cat Repellent. Leave it on your
bike...or wherever you don’t want Fluffy to be catting around...and the royal furball will
avoid that area. And leave cute paw tracks elsewhere. Made of largely natural materials including some sort of mustardoil extract that cats don’t like, this stuff will help keep
kitty away from whatever you don’t want the sharp-clawed little jerk messing with.
There are four varieties of this compound: a small plastic vial that holds pellets of the
anti-cat material and is ideal for household use, a rather more potent gel version in jars
for those problem areas kitty really has a fixation on, a recloseable vented ‘air freshener’ type jar that is ideal for use near vehicles and around the garage or basement,
and a more powerful encapsulated bulk version that is perfect for use outdoors in
flowerbeds or the like. Effective for several months.
