I want to carry one with me, especially beacuse I do a lot of solo riding. Don't want to get stuck hours from home with a flat tire.
Anyone have any experience with these?
What works?
Recommendations?

I've got the collection of kits from Stop & Go; I've used the CO2 kit #1090 on the road a few times but i've only done a couple of 'test' plugs with the Tubeless Tire Plug Gun kit #1075. they are small pouches for each... I carry them and the mc version of Fix-a-flat.

for those of us without center-stands, i've got a collapsible stand that hooks onto swingarm spools.

a bit of 'insurance' like these can go a long way in the middle of bfe!

--the HOG's road service org let me put the Busa on the plan--

I've used a tire plug on more than one occasion, and they worked very well, even with speeds over 120 MPH. :oops: Just make sure to check your air pressure often to make sure you aren't losing air. :)
