Best tire plugger I have found so far (www.motopumps.com)

I am not associated with Motopumps in any way. But when I find a really good product I like to spread the word. For $13 this compact plug kit is a steal. On our season opener to Death Valley this year I handed them out to all my friends. If you don’t have tubes this is a really nice plug kit with great packaging. The sharp bits break down and are contained in a slick metal cylinder. The only downfall is that you must supply your own glue, but there’s space inside for a small tube. I’m also running the Motopumps locking GPS mount for my ZumoXT2 which I would recommend. They seem like a good company and I like to support them.

Have you had to use it yet?

[–] Renorc 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

Photo for proof. Glue is required. Beer is optional.

You have a preferred glue? How do you like the tiger (assumiy it is a tiger)?

No, I think they’re all the same. Whatever is convenient. The bike with the flat was a friend’s 97 BMW R1100 GS. It’s a beast. Ohlins at both ends and it rides great. Super stable but not exactly responsive. We noticed The paralever developed a crack on day 6 and he decided to end his trip early. Otherwise it’s a great vintage ADV bike. I’m on a KTM 890 this year which is a real rocketship.
