I'm planning a 5 - 6 hour drive to Maine this May. I've had my Spit for a
little over 2 years now, but have never gone more than 100- 150 miles at
any one time. I've stayed off the Interstates because of concerns about
running
the car at higher rpm's and the interstates aren't any fun. What I'd like
to do is put together an emergency kit and was looking for advice from the
experienced listers.( Not to be pessimistic , my AAA is paid up .)
Actually the only breakdown I've experienced on the road was a broken
accelerator
cable. I enjoy reading about other people's cars and repairs but I
really like hearing about where people drive their cars.
Hans and listers
Make your Triumph boot (trunk) look authentic from now onwards - especially
if you're going to VTR this year and want to take a few bits with you - just
in case. I've copied (as accurately as I can) the label and contents of a
GENUINE factory CONTINENTAL TOURING KIT with box dimensions from one still
in my possession. Like me, the box is looking a bit faded, but UNlike me,
the contents still work - or ought to! I haven't tried them out for a while.
Feel free to print it off and apply the label to your box of bits. Comes
with my compliments. You'll find the label at
