I'm looking at doing some traveling on my 83 R100RS. Most of my trips will be 2-3 days, probably no more that 300 miles away from home.
I've just purchased an OEM toolkit as my bike didn't have one when I bought it. My question is what spares should I carry? Sparkplug, clutch cable? What else?
Fuses, tire repair kit including battery powered compressor, zip ties, wire, thread lock, flashlight and vice grips. MOA Anonymous Book.
Float bowl gaskets !
Owning an old Airhead is easy.
Keeping an old Airhead running great is the true test.
A good video to watch. I had just about all this, clutch cable and carb bowl gasket. I was able to also pick up an original tool kit and manual air pump.

I carry a backup hand pump to my 12 volt mini pump. This is an excellent product.
