1:11 Hey, it's that mushroom tire plugger they tore to shreds in their most recent video. HAHA! Damn, they must have had to use it before they found out how bad it was. I love it when you can see creators grow.

[@thatsuaveraptor4297]

To those wanting to bring a first aid kit i would recommend putting your own together, pre made kits are always more expensive and usually contain some items you won't ever use. Building your own kit up means you can tailor it to your specific needs.

Tire Plugs: I worked in a tire shop and I never cared for the mushroom plugs. I did like the rope/cord style. Get one with T Handle, it is hard to push/pull the strait ones. Happy riding

[@robertdeford7762]

I would also include/suggest these as essentials too: LED hazard light/flare and/or a flashlight - Which is good for signaling people/first responders/etc, or working in low-light conditions. Water or sports drink(and a straw) - I get thirsty when I ride for more than 30 minutes, especially if I get stuck in traffic (lane splitting is not legal here), regardless of the temperature. The one time I had forgotten to bring a drink, I was so focused on riding that I had began to develop "heat exhaustion" which forced me to pull over, strip down a little and sit in some shade... and then a police car(officer gave me water and let me cool off in his car).

[@sammyscrap]

Good video, but just a point, you should turn on your compressor BEFORE you attach it to the tire. Otherwise the load on the compressor facing the pressure of the tire can cause the a spike in the current and blow your fuse. It happened to me!

[@FortNine]

Ah interesting! I blew the fuse on my V-Strom the first time I used it as well. Now I think I know why haha. ~RyanF9

[@rapmeister1000]

I have always ridden with all mentioned here. Been riding for 40 yrs. I'd add 3 more things. 1. Small flashlight. I use a newer kree type which is super bright for a mini light. And I don't end up draining my phone battery using its light. 2. Bottled water. You mentioned a first aid course. I'm an instructor and in first aid, clean, sterile water is essential. Bottled water fits the bill. 3. A lestherman tool. It doesn't have to be the Leatherman brand, but a multi tool like that ends up being indispensable in so many situations even with your bike tool kit.

[@zachmiller9175]

If a bottle won't fit in the limited storage of most sport bikes a plastic bag and water purification tablets will also work. Bottled water is definitely more ideal though.

[@Canada151337]

[@DarxusC]

I think something for traumatic bleeding is more valuable than everything in that first aid kit combined. Somebody else mentioned tourniquets, but QuikClot is a really neat option. (The sponge, not the gauze.) There's a great video of them testing it on a pig (about human size), cutting a femoral artery.

[@kian.merrikh]

Ryan, you-say-it-like-it-is style is refreshing. Most vloggers seem sponsored and somewhat biased towards sharing only positive reviews of products. This does not seem to be the case and the candid and honest reviews and tips are why I watch your videos...not to mention it is Canadian content! Finally! Keep up the great work...

[@orangelion03]

Great video topic! I carry pretty much the same, except for the rain gear. I live in SoCal and rain is mythical (I do have it and will carry it if forecasts are predicting moisture falling from the skies). Made my own basic tool kit I carry at all times, and have a more comprehensive one for multi-day trips. And I can attest to the Stop&Go product working! I was stranded with a flat a few years ago and a fellow rider stopped by and gave me his kit. I recently gave it to another stranded rider and bought a new one.

[@christopherharpster9330]

I'm so glad to see you have a IFAK in your kit. I'm an EMT-A in the US, and I also ride(Honda guy here). My FAK is a little more comprehensive due to my level of training, but I am so glad I had it and so is my brother in law last weekend. We went fly fishing at this local spot that is always a blast to take my CRF and his KTM to. He's allergic to bees, so he asked me to put his epipen in my kit, because he's still waiting for bags. Anyway we had some heavy winds and rain a couple weeks ago, and it knocked over a tree on our path to the stream. He was the lead man, and unbeknownst to him, ran over a hornets nest. He ended up taking a sting to his neck, causing me to have to give him his pen. Luckily we got everything taken care of immediately, or needless to say my wife's sister would probably be a widow.

[@Liberty4Ever]

I love practical videos like this. Wish I'd seen it before equipping my ADV bike. I'm a big fan of small and lightweight minimalism, but I went significantly upscale on my custom assembled tool roll and an augmented first aid kit, but I saved some size and weight (and money) by carrying a mountain bike pump instead of a compressor. Yes, it'll take longer if I need to inflate a tire after plugging a hole, but I may never need to do this and a good Blackburn pump is going to be more reliable and maintainable than a compressor.

[@2markpowell]

[@rannylane1971]

Great video FortNine. You made riders think about what to pack and what they pack. Great Job!

[@AgentOrange83]

Hey Ryan, in my experience from working on the ambulance I think it is very recommendable to add a high quality tourniquet to your first aid kit. With all the obstacles in the streets and in the woods, limbs can be severed or arteries be injured in a bad crash if one is unlucky. Or have at least a belt with you. Ideally let medical staff show you how to use it. Ride safe and greetings from Germany :)

[@chrishastings]

[@brucemonighan2925]

I have the tire plugger kit and have used it many times. It is an outstanding kit, works extremely well and plugs are permanent

[@cw2772]

Probably the most important thing you should carry in your first aid kit is a tourniquet. Very easy to apply but the one thing that will kill you the quickest after head trauma is catastrophic blood loss. You can apply it to yourself one handed and has saved more lives than I care to imagine. Bandages and plasters all well and good, but only any good for something minor. Sorry to drop the mood here, but as a medic - I can honestly say - trust me on this one.

[@amitkrupal1234]

Thank you for valuable information

[@pdrofletch2]

I've used the tyre plugs and they're good. Kept pressure for a few days until I got a proper repair done by my mechanic.

[@desertlogistics]

Tire plugs are temporary fix. Yes you can drive or ride for a long time or forever using tire plug but technically you should not. On hight speeds and temperature they can come loose and push out and that is dangerous The hole that you clean to install them will promote water between the layers of the tire rubber and if there are steel wires they will eventually rust and migrate further and surprise you with a bad blow out one day. Thank you for all your hard work always to deliver proper information well researched. Also never use a plus if it is close to the side wall of the tire. Unless really you are going to drive slowly until you get a proper fix .

[@jovi___]

Love your videos! Keep up the great work!

[@motorcop505]

Another great video but I have to make a recommendation regarding the first aid kit: if you go down at speed, this will be useless. The typical injuries that occur in most crashes are: extensive road rash, broken bones, and injuries that can cause major bleeding. The solution: purchase 1-2 large trauma bandages. These are around 8" x 10" large guise bandages that are good for covering large rash ares, large cuts, and the stumps,of any limbs that are detached (avulsed); some Z-Medica coagulation powder or impregnated Giuseppe bandages. This powder is capable of stopping arterial bleeding. Cinchable high pressure bandages. These Israeli mad bandages are made do the gauze pad cand be cinched tight to provide pressure at the scene of the injury; a tourniquet, preferably a special operations version that is capable of self application; Mylar "space" blanket. These are great for if you are stranded in the cold, but crucial for warding off shock from an injured victim. All of these items can be bought on line, especially on eBay. I also recommend a waterproof strobe to draw attention to you and the crash site in darkness so it isn't compounded by additional vehicles becoming involved. Of course, wearing appropriate protective clothes and hi viz garments and gear can go a long way in preventing your need for using your first aid kit. It's still crucial for other victims you might come across.

[@waynewilliams8620]

A tire plugger I highly recommend. Helped a Harley rider out with the one I carried in my truck. Nice to see more compact compressors available as well. Packable Rain Gear, First Aid and Tool Kits, SHOULD BE A NO BRAINER, here in Canada. While cell coverage is good in most places, response times may not be, (given the distances travelled.) Three items I'd add, a folding knife with serrated blade, flashlight, and firestarter. Always carried them in off road backpack.

I have a Peugeot Speedfight 3 moped, and I have a First aid kit, tool kit, manual tire pump and a flashlight underneath the seat(there’s a big compartment with a lock). I’m trying to get my hands on a tire plugger kit too. I put it in a watertight box(say I crash and the moped falls in a river/lake the stuff won’t be all wet) that fits perfectly in a small recess of the compartment so I still have room for a Brake disc lock and a spare helmet for when my friends want a ride too.

It's only good for about 40 miles and on road riding though. I did a bit over 40, with two of those plugs. You'll notice when you need more than one, if air is escaping. I didn't have to use the air pump again before getting home. Drove about 13 miles after using them and checked: no air was gone.

[@jockmacdonald6736]

Despite the fact you slagged the tire plugger in your recent video I have used it to fix a tire in an emergency and it was the bomb! I have a similar compressor ( loud and slow ) to yours but about the size of a pack of smokes, for god's sake, but it works! Back on the road in MINUTES!

[@robertanthonyfarrell]

Have you looked at DynaPlug for puncture repair ? It's a much smaller unit (about the size of a CO2 canister) and has no need for a bradawl or other tools - just a knife/wire cutters to trim off the excess. I found a puncture in my rear tyre the night before I left for a 700 mile round trip into Europe and when I measured the pressure when I got home, it had dropped maybe 1 or 2 psi (same as the undamaged front tyre). It took around 20 seconds to repair the tyre - just make sure there's enough pressure in the tyre and it'll push through with no struggle. Considering it's not even expensive and the replacement plugs are also cheap, I really think it's one of the most valuable bike-related things I've ever bought. Apart from my actual bike obviously. :)

[@CRPerformance1]

Mushroom tire pluggers have a fatal flaw. Unless inside of the tire is flat where the hole is located, it will leak. This is usually not the case as the hole will inevitably push some rubber to the inside opening of the hole. Also, there's no way that compressor can fill an air mattress without over heating. It would have to run for hours and would probably run your battery down. But I suppose a small, thin, single person air mattress would be feasible.

[@plasun86]

I carry a Slime tire repair kit in my backpack; its supposed to work well from what I've heard and researched online. Concerning off road riding in colder weather - if you're not prepared to survive the night; then your NOT prepared. I have a motorcycling checklist on my computer that I refer to before each ride, so that I never forget anything.

[@GunFunZS]

I have had terrible experience with slime. It isn't enough to stop a leak, at best it delays a complete flat until a surprise time. At worst, and at most common, it just lets you get a flat and makes it so the patch is contaminated and unfixable.

I choose a bicycle hand pump.. yeah it takes a few strokes to pump up but not that bad and it doesn't need any electric

[@trevorbest]

With the plugger YMMV. The inside of the tyre can have ribs, it it goes on one of these there won't be a 100% seal and some leakage will ensue. It will get you home but you'll need a proper patch. If it goes on a smooth part of the inside, it'll work a treat.

I keep a tire plugging kit that has these kinda tar covered string looking plugs in my car just because I’ve bought used tires with this kind of plug in them before and they’ve outlasted the remaining tread on the tire I can imagine those will work fine for you. Problem is inflation which is why I now keep an aerosol type product in my trunk as well.
