| My ST2 now has 30,000 on the clock. Just back from a run to Monza, play time in the Alps and then went over to Le Mans for the GP. I've also taken her to Valencia, Assen, Knockhill etc.
Tools
I have a small Halfords socket set and allen key set and the Ducati supplied kit. I have rarely used them.
Puncture repair
I don't carry a repair kit. A puncture is so rare that I regard it as a major breakdown..!!
Insurance
I have RAC European cover for me and the bike. Worth every penny. Make sure you are covered for getting you and the bike back home. I've never needed it but the guy I was with at Le Mans lost a cam belt on the way home and they paid for everything to get him and bike home.
Personal Accident cover
I have a Amex policy that covers me for any eventuality. Some EXCLUDE motorcycling as a "dangerous sport"..!! Make absolutely sure you are covered in the event of a spill.
trust this helps. Drop me a mail if want to
