We have a support van with a mechanic and tools but it is
nice to know you can do a lot of stuff yourself by the side of the road if you
need to. It should also help when we are doing the half-way service on all the
bikes in Dushanbe.
Tyre levers, inner tube and air pump for punctures. Spares
for the service (filters, plugs, bulbs etc.) And a toolkit with all the
essentials (researched from the UKGSers forum – thanks chaps).
I’ve also replaced the alloys that are standard on the GS
with a pair of spoked wheels from the GS Adventure. The theory is that you can
fix spoked wheels if they get damaged but alloys are a write-off that will end
the trip.
