Re: Pannier lower locating lug caps screws loose

I also saw this on that forum. I immediately checked mine (2015RT-LC) and found both sides quite loose. Decided a dab of Loctite would help!

Re: 2014 RT Coolant Leak?

Had a new water pump fitted at 1100 miles. Clearly a fault. I would have been very annoyed if it had not been replaced.

Tyre Repair Kit

I am planning an overseas trip and want to take a tyre repair kit, just in case.  I have been looking at the rubber plug with CO2 canister variety. There seem to be a number on the accessory market. Has anyone any advice as to which/what I should buy?
