    Johnny, I've never carried an extra sparkplug nor the socket. On the twin cams, sparkplugs will last almost forever. I went 100,000 on the original plugs, and they still looked good when I changed them with similar $2 plugs.

    I do have a good set of tools that I carry but have never used. It's a lot of weight in the left bag so I offset it with the gas can in the right bag.

    Tire plug kit, you never get a flat next to a tire store, ever... At least it will get you to the next town, and a can of fix a flat, you have to air it back up....

    Yes, forgot to mention that. I carry a Stop n Go tire plugger with a small air compressor in my left saddlebag. Those Fix a Flat aerosol cans freeze and burst in the winter months.

    If you pass through Minnesota, let me know when you will be through. Maybe I can swing meeting you and riding to the border to South Dakota? Just a thought.
