It’s easy to create clean and durable accessory wiring connections. This kit contains a useful selection of sizes for a variety of 12V electrical applications. There are three sizes of connector blocks and pins, each of which has male and female components. Wires are crimped to the pins (soldering optional) and then the pins clip into the connector blocks which are shaped to preserve polarity. The five small connectors take 20-24 ga. wire and are ideal for things like radar detectors or tiny LED voltmeters; the four medium size connectors take 18-24 ga. wire and are suitable for things like GPSs, radio receivers and those sorts of loads; and the four large ones take 14-20 ga. wire for connecting things like grip warmers, radio transmitters or extra lights.

About thirty (+-) years ago a co-worker in our fabric cutting area asked for some kind of apron or smock to protect their street clothing from the glues used to make TF Impact armor, and also from the constant rubbing when one leans over against the side rails of our fabric cutting tables. Here is a refined-over-the-years version of what we came up with.  Over time, several customers touring our facility have asked if they could buy one, and now you (and they) can. If you had asked, sorry for the long wait, here they are now.

Two versions: Brown 8.25 oz waxed cotton and Black 500D Cordura nylon. Both feature adjustable 1" nylon shoulder straps to fine-tune fit, an adjustable waist buckle strap to secure it around your midsection, and three deep pockets perfect for tools, small parts, or just about anything else you want quick access to. The chest pocket works great for a pen, notepad, or smartphone. We recommend the waxed cotton if you’re welding and/or backyard BBQ-ing. For most other uses, go with Cordura. Made by us to last at least as long as you do, probably longer. Made in America. One size fits most.

Ensures that you’ll get ALL the air out of a clutch or brake system by allowing you to inject clean fluid into the bleeder valve, thus forcing air upstream where it bubbles out the master cylinder.

A hand kneadable, steel-reinforced epoxy putty adhesive/sealant that will plug holes and make permanent repairs on wet and dry surfaces. It can be drilled, sanded, filed, tapped, machined, and painted. This Herculean-strong putty cures in 20–30 minutes, even while completely submerged under water or gasoline(!).

If you’ve ever encountered the charmingly termed “evaporative recovery nozzles” at gas stations, you know what a semi-spastic wrestling match with one of these flammable-spewing horses appendages can be like. All you’re trying to do is refuel your motorcycle, right? However, for those of us so afflicted, this nozzle key artfully retracts the corrugated... forepart of said alloy proboscis and allows you to gas your bike with a minimum of fuss and splatter.

Originally developed for the military, this high quality self-bonding silicone wrap forms a permanent non-conductive, air and watertight insulating seal which stays flexible and won’t crack or melt in temperatures from –60° to +500°F. It can be removed and won’t leave a sticky residue like electrical tape. A great coolant hose patch, electric insulator or tool handle wrap. One 1"×10' roll, 2.0 oz.

Same stuff as X-Treme Tape, but more of it in a bunch of colors, which can be handy and pretty. Stays flexible. Self bonding. Non-conductive. Six 1"×10' rolls. Red, yellow, green, gray, white and clear. 8.4 oz.

Why get stranded? This kit allows you to do complete on-the-rim tubeless tire repairs in a jiffy with the included Pocket Plugger, and the also includes a valve adapter with CO2 cartridges to refill your tire, so you can get back on the road quickly. The Pocket Plugger utilizes an included Allen wrench to turn an integral ram, which minimizes effort and securely seats the pre-lubricated plugs — no rubber cement is needed.

This is the smallest, lightest compressor we carry and one of the most efficient you’ll find for its size. This stripped-down mini fits in the palm of your hand and will inflate any motorcycle tire in a couple minutes. When a larger compressor is too much bulk to carry along, and CO2 cartridges aren’t nearly enough for your trip, this dedicated pump will deliver continuous pressure without fail. What it lacks in beauty, it makes up for in performance – which is what you really need when you’re flat stranded in the middle of nowhere.

Has a nice long 26" inflator hose, 6' power cord, and packs small in included storage sack. Comes with three adaptors: SAE, cigarette lighter and alligator clips. Lock-down delivery valve fits all bikes. Also comes with carabiner clip, so you can attach the compressor to whatever you want out of the way and off the ground, instead of having it lay in the mud or dirt. Simple, compact, and dependable peace of mind. Pump is 3.5"×3.5"×.9". Packs to 7"×5"×3", 1.3 lb.

Draws 5-6.5amps at 12v. Max pressure - Zero to 90psi (bicycle tire) in about 90 seconds.

A self-priming fuel transfer system. No matter where you are, this ultra compact system won’t leave you stranded for long. Throw away that length of gnarly old hose and safely siphon fuel from any gas-powered device without getting a mouthful of gas.

This is one siphon that doesn’t suck. Simply insert the self-priming end into any non-empty gas tank, and put the other end into the transferring container/carrying case (that works a heck of a lot better than a crinkled Mountain Dew can). A few up and down motions and you’ll be siphonin’ away. The handy stopper clip maintains siphoning even when in the “off” position, so there’s no need to begin the process all over again between container transfers to your tank. The included super soak towel quickly cleans up any excess spills and everything fits neatly back into the transfer container/carrying case. Carrying case is 10.1"×2.6"×1.25" and holds 1/8 gallon of gas. Siphon is 68" long. Entire system weighs less than 4 oz.

Additional Information/Resources:

These are very bright. Red versions (solid or flashing) make nice added tail or brake lights, white lights enhance visibility as an auxiliary running light. The reason to use the brake light version is obvious. The reason to add one to the front of your motorcycle isn’t….and is this: Not for roadway illumination, but to make your approach more obvious to those ahead. Why? Because anything unusual stands out. Locating one of these, always-on, next to a front turn signal or beside a headlight turns the usual head-on appearance of a motorcycle into something slightly irregular, thus more clearly standing out from amongst the rest of traffic. Rain and weather proof. Machined aluminum bodies. Includes ‘L’ mounting bracket. Sold in pairs. 1.18” x .8". 3W, 12V. Choose Solid White, Solid Red or Flashing Red.

Note: The wires connecting to the micro-circuit board inside the aluminum light housing are fairly small. We recommend adding 'silicone seal' to the hole in the light housing the wires pass through to provide strain relief and lessen the chance of a wire breaking in use.

For tube tires. 6 patches and rubber cement.

Integrated deceleration-sensing technology illuminates this tail light bulb even when you downshift or slow without applying any braking force. Automatically brightens alerting traffic behind you of reduced speed while decreasing the chance of a rear-end collision. Apply brakes and it functions just like your standard brake light system. Patented design integrates auto-recharging, self-powered capacitors with self-activating technology and long-life LED lamps. Fits most motorcycles, replacing any standard 1154 (6 Volt) or 1157 (12 Volt) type bulb (with the exception of rear-loading lamps). CAN Bus compatible. Rated to last up to 5 years.

It’s a bright taillight…until you hit the brakes. Then, it flashes four times fast—pauses—three flashes a little slower—pauses—two more real slow, and it’s on full time as a stop light. The entire flash/pause sequence takes 4 seconds and repeats each time you re-apply the brakes. This complex pattern is commonly and intuitively recognized as a deceleration warning. The bulb’s reliable digital electronics are all contained inside the bulbs base. Choose from widely available, easily replaceable “G-4” halogen bulb version (easy to carry spare bulb is also included), upgrade to long life LED option, or select the dual ballast CAN-bus compatible model for most modern BMW's. Fits standard 1157 dual filament brake/taillight bulb sockets. Legal disclaimer: May not be approved for use in all states.
