djr, you are right about the lack of space under the seat.....what space?

For what it's worth, i have ridden nearly 30,000 mileson my tigers and have not had cause to use any more tools than are in the set under the seat.

Where do you draw the line?. The only other bits i have stowed away are some cable ties, a roll of self-amalgamating tap (burst hoses, electrics, just about anything), and a small bottle of chain oil in case my lubetronic runs out after i forgot to fill it up! and a can of Hein-Gericke emergency tyre repair. This stuff really works well on tubed tyres as well as tubeless. I speak from experience!!!


Thats about it. When i go away with luggage on board, i will pack fuses, bulbs, and some more spanners and stuff to make up a more
comprehensive toolkit.
