What gear do you take along?

I couldn't really find a "General Discussion" area on the forum so this looked like as good a place as any to ask this question. Being new to SxSs and not wanting to be a total unprepared douche on the trails should I have an issue, what basic gear do I need to take along with me on the trails?

Tool kit, tire repair kit with a pump, first aid kit, food, water, rain gear, cell phone.

Extra belt for your machine, some people carry a pump sprayer to clean their windshield and radiator.

usually food drinks of some sort..nothing major....small air pump ...tire plugs.....extra quart of oil...clothes for the weather....few odds n ends wrenches...belt for the 800 aint got a spare for the 900 yet

I carry jumper cables just in cast & tow rope and most items listed above.Make sure you get the best 12 volt pump you can get so expect to spend around $50.00 those cheap ones won't last and are real slow at pumping up a tire especially if your trying to air it up while you are plugging it.

Steel tie wire & zip ties

 OK, the zip ties I understand...a pretty universal item that has many uses, but steel tie wire...is this when the zip tie just wont hold a broken something out of the way.

All of you guys have forgotten the most important thing out of them all.....Toilet Paper or wipes.

There's a debate all by itself.....toilet paper or wipes! Toilet paper is the ole stand by that has been around for ages! A quality roll is worth every penny. But wipes....wipes leave you minty fresh!

Besides everything mentioned above I carry tie rods and tie rod ends, scissor jack, brake pads, 12v bilge pump with 20ft hose to wash out radiator, extra spark plugs, k and n filter cleaner and oil, numerous nuts and bolts that will fit the rzr, extra lug nuts, spare tire, FSR radio,ball joints...I have helped several people out on the trails and even myself one time.

Damn! Sounds like you're prepared for about anything!

I figure everything for 2 or more uses , space is a premium , but one I have not seen so far is WD40 it can dry out a flooded motor and get water out of electrical , but you can't go wrong with first aid . Neuromax and I came across some fella's on the stairsteps that had taken a pretty good fall with no helment , he was bleeding from his ears and was out , the fellas with him had no idea where they were or how to treat him so they were basicly watching him die from a brain injury .

 Just remember hall it in hall it out. stop littering  seeing a lot of trash slinging lately. Not pointing fingers,we have lost a lot of riding are over the years. Forst ranger told me about a month ago it is going to start taking a toll.

All good items but don't forget the firearm.
