Keep us all posted on any problems you may encounter on your new ride. Law enforcement has a hard on right now for bikers on 247 around sSmiley's flea market so take it easy. See you around town one day.
 

A lot of people are apprehensive about using traditional plugs in motorcycle tires because they can fall out. I personally haven't had any problems using them. The mushroom head plugs sold in this kit prevent that by forcing the plug in the tire in such a way that the mushroom shaped head of the plug prevents it from coming out. Almost like patching from the inside. There are several models including a pocket type.
 
That's a pretty handy piece of kit Gregger. It's bigger than what I used to carry but I think I may just get one anyway.

This one is a bit smaller. Pocket size??? Comes with 4 CO2 cartridges or without.

 
I like the size of that one better Gregger but that allen wrench twist looks like it will take awhile. in any case I don't have anything ATM and need something soon.
 
Sorry to have taken so long to welcome you to the Forum from Sunny South Florida!

Good chat – great people, so I’m sure you’ll enjoy the time you spend here with us!

On another note, IMO a plug is an emergency measure to allow you to get to the next place (at moderate speed) where you can replace the tire. On a motorcycle with the power and torque of our Rockets, I'd NEVER consider a plugged tire safe to ride on for the long haul.
