Here's a touring experience among the riders, who submitted the Webike Community "MOTO HACK Touring" Campaign, about using a touring item that you might be interested in.
Here are some of the other riders' favorite goodies you don't usually get to see!
In this article, I would like to share with you some of monsterdog G4's favorite touring items and ideas on his WR250R.
Profile of monsterdog G4
I usually enjoy motocross practice as a strength training experience. I try not to push myself. If I push myself too hard, I'll get hurt and I won't be able to ride (lol). I do occasional night touring.
About the motorcycle
It is a WR250R. It's a used motorcycle, purchased with 2000k miles on it. The customization I wanted to do was already done, so I could spend my time tinkering with the vehicle in my ride time.
The usual touring style
Occasionally, I'm solo night touring. Mainly in Tokyo.
What I enjoy about touring.
I'm not really interested in touring itself, so I don't really enjoy it. I use it mainly for motocross practice.
Favorite Spot
I haven't found it yet. It is only a short forest road in the neighborhood.
What are your favorite items?
A portable ashtray and Velcro tape from a 100 yen shop.
Useful uses and favorite points
Usual use
Used when you want to smoke a cigarette.
Useful tips and tricks
Use Velcro to attach it to the back of the license plate bracket.
Recommendations.
The weight of the portable ashtray is light, so I think the adhesion is sufficient. Since the portable ashtray itself is made of vinyl, it can be sufficiently secured with Velcro.
Summary
[Benefit]
Easy, cheap, and convenient. If you put a portable ashtray in a bag or other container, it will smell, but this is a safe place.
[Disadvantage]
On a rainy day, the portable ashtray gets soaked. Also, the water pressure of the high-pressure washer is indeed unbearable to aim at.
[Review]
Nowadays, there are often no ashtrays in convenience stores due to corona. Also, there are basically no ashtrays in the mountains or parks. This portable ashtray is very useful.
