7:20. Some very important emergency items left off the list:
- Headlamp instead of flashlight.
- A few fuses in the sizes and capacities specific to your bike.
- Small roll of electrical tape.
- Small roll of duct tape.
- 2 ft of 20 gauge electrical wire (can be rolled to fit inside the electrical tape roll).

My wife just surprised me with my new bike over thr weekend for my birthday!! I am a beginner so she got me a Honda Rebel 300! I love it already!

[DynamicProGamer]

The thought of 2 guys in a van just coming and picking up my bike genuinely scares me so much.

Best thing I bought without realizing a month ago when I joined the rider community: the smart phone gloves, salesman told me about it and I thought oh that’s great yea I’ll take em. They are the absolute most convenient thing I have

You forgot a large pack of foam ear plugs and cleaning supplies. A clean bike is a happy bike. Also makes finding where that oil leak is coming from a lot easier.

Honestly, in my years of riding so far I never needed a tool kit on the road - only used tools when I swapped my exhaust. However, cleaning supplies and tools for especially chain maintenance and other mechanical components is in my opinion much more important on a regular basis, and something every rider should keep in stock - especially if you ride in humid environments. Keeping your mechanical pieces clean will save you from having to do actual repairs down the line.

“Chain it to something heavy like a Car, a Rock or Your Mother” haha this guy have me dying. Your videos are helpful and hilarious.

I have been a Progressive customer since 2012... and have been VERY Pleased! Had a "Hit & Run" incident, and they were GREAT!

The old way to stop your visor fogging up is to rub a bit of soap onto the inside of the visor, and them buff it out until clear again. This works well for at least a couple of days of winter riding, and it's not much of a hassle to re-do

[GearShifter]

I'm using LS 2 helmet ( PIN LOCK). Gloves : RAIDA ( summer gloves )
😊👍🏻 I'm happy with it.
I Gotta SEARCH some Gloves for Rainy days..🔎

7:28 Road Flares!! Bonus points if you have the ones with the little wire legs. Puddles don't always kill a flare but both mud and puddles can and sometimes will. And it'll be at the worst moment.
Also, a small knife, pen and paper (preferably a space pen and "writes in the rain" paper), and a bic lighter

[csage]

I just got my first bike (2019 Vulcan S) and I got the smart turn system and smart break system because I live in New England where we have statistically some of the worst drivers in the country and I’m not trying to get rear ended and go top side :)

Personal thoughts from someone who recently probably progressed from a beginner to intermediate:

The disc lock is VERY essential!!! At least if you live in SoCal. Don't listen to what he says though. Your 400 can and will get stolen if you're careless. When I had a R3 and browsed the R3 forums and FB groups, I remember multiple ppl getting them stolen. Also, those accessories should be a 1 time purchases and will stay with you regardless of bike. Personally, I think a disc lock and Kyrpotonite chain should be considered a part of the cost of your bike. On the subject of my first bike, my R3 had a gear indicator, but the next bike I purchased did not. So I immediately went out and bought a gear indicator. If I knew what I know now, I wouldn't have bought it. I never even look at the gear indicator. I thought that I did, but I don't. I mostly forget it's there until it errors out. It's a major PITA to calibrate and is oftentimes inaccurate anyways. It was also kind of a pain to install. Your ears are just as good, if not better than those lil gear indicators for telling you which gear you're in, at least on my bike.
