Trail tool kit

[MattR]

For oil, you can use a bottle from empty sta-bil gas. Or you can pick up a small bottle of premix oil at Lowe's in the lawn mower/chainsaw aisle. These usually hold enough oil for 3 gallons of gas.

For tools, you don't need to carry the large sockets. 6,8,10,12 only. 6 is for the main jet in your carb. Use combo open wrenches up to size 14. A combo axle nut and spark plug is good. Needle nose pliers with side cut. Needle nose locking pliers/vise grip. Duct tape wrapped around a wrench. A few zip-ties and some safety wire. Folding Allen wrenches and screwdriver combo. Tip: Buy your trail tools at Harbor Freight since they are seldom used. If you should loose them, then you only lost a little bit of money.

I also pack about a 1 1/2 feet of fuel line.
When a bike runs out of fuel, hook up both petcocks (mothership and empty bike) and let the fuel equalize between the tanks.

+10 !

Fuel line weighs next to nothing and can be squeezed into all kinds of odd places for storage til needed.

Here my stuff.
Somethings go on the Camelback, somethings on the fanny pack.



The thing i tread on spark plug can be made on an lathe and the wrench on botton (rear wheel and spark plug) cut in laser machine. If someone want, i send the .dwg drawing.

Leo, in the bottom left of the picture - it is a flint?)
I take with me Zippo lighter, and oil in a 3 or 4 small flat bottles of 50 ml. can be decomposed into backpack
as well as a small file

Wow! You guys are prepared!
Last fall one of the Dirt Rider guys wanted to borrow a bike from us to ride at the last National Enduro in Indiana. I should have told him that the GG has a crankcase drain for dumping water out of the bike but did not think he would need that bit of information. I was wrong.
I have not had to use that particuar feature. Anyone have experience with it and how well it works as opposed to turning the bike over and pumping the water out of the spark plug hole?

Clay, I've never had to use it but check this thread..... http://www.gasgasrider.org/forum/sho...ighlight=drain

I've used it. Works great. Drain the water, kick twice, put the plug back in. Started in another 6-7 kicks.

I have 5 years in GasGas experience. This is all in Brazilian trails. So, trust me.

The drain bolt is awesome! I belive that when the bike is upside down, always will be water inside the piston.

BUT!

If you flood the bike in an mud hole, is always best tow to home and open the engine to wash prior to kick.

Much easier to drop the bash plate and undo a bolt than trying to wrestle a bike too! Still need to stand it up to drain the pipe.. Good call on the piston Leo.
