Dude Spencer what up? I just realized you have a Channel (yes I’m slow on adventures and in life lol) Just wanted to thank you for always being so cool to me as a mosko customer and for setting up your big Agnes tent in the dark like myself haha. Cheers

Thanks for the share. Got the same Fatty Tool Roll and love it. Always looking at making it complete - I don't mind the weight strapped same place as yours on my CRF1000.

some good tips thanks

That slit in the buckle is a highly underrated design feature!

Mate of mine uses 3/8" drive sockets because he thinks1/4" drive might break. He also has to carry a 3/8" drive torque wrench to complement those sockets so he can set those fasteners at the right setting after repair. One of those sockets is a whopper to undo the rear axle nut on his Kawasaki GTR1400. His socket set runs from 8mm all the way up to 22mm. His tool roll weighs a ton. In 11 years of European touring neither he nor myself plus two mates have ever had a single mechanical breakage or fault, nor a single puncture in a combined mileage of around 88,000miles. But my mate sleeps better at night knowing he has the tools. I did ask him once what he would do with his monster rear wheel once he had removed it. He had no answer. Which brings me (eventually, sorry) to my point - why, oh why carry tools for other riders??? Tools that don't fit your own bike!? Might as well carry a couple of litres of oil in case someone else's bike dumps its oil on the bitumen. Why carry Knipex adjustables (two of them!) "for axle nuts or something larger" when you are carrying the axle nut/tire iron adapter that does the job?? Can't get my head around it all.....

Great video. Love the little axle nut wrench that uses a tire Iron. What/where do I get one? Decades of racing off road, one ISDE. But now, retired, and going to buy a 790R and do the alaska trip with a buddy here in the next month or so whenever the border opens. Its like learning a whole new sport this adventure riding... Once again, great video.

Love seeing what others carry, I really need to slim my kit down. But it currently does 2 different bikes.

Extra tools are my comfort blanket! I usually carry the tool kit for our group, hence some extras.

Having trouble finding the 32mm tool you demod in the video. Who makes it?

No safety wire, no loctite, no duct tape, no straps ?

Hey that's cute. Did your husband teach you to pack your tools?

Please don't say 'handy dandy' anymore

I do carry a spare tube along with patches. I also carry a small air compressor to air back up.
