WhoDat - You been nosing around inside my brothers ATV storage boxes?

I'm one of the lucky ones - I carry one rear rack mounted soft duffel bag packed with misc. stuff plus a small cooler with food and drinks. I get away with so little because I usually ride with my brother who carries pretty much everything on your list. He's got all that stuff except the weapon, propane stove and the toothpics (and there's a good chance he's got the toothpics too). Plus there are a few extra items (like his 3' long crowbar - great for reforming any wrecked ATV's found on the trail), that are not on this list.

I keep trying to get him to lighten his load, but most of this stuff gets used sometime.

Yes there are some duplicates. Big binoculars in the trunk, little binoculars in the tank bag. 3 quads, 6 boxes, 6 bags. Tools and heavy rope and light throw ropes and stuff all over the place. If I take it all out to inventory it - it looks like a camping store blew up in the garage...lol

Now where do I put that microwave...... Did I mention a color TV in the tank bag?...

I can't take full credit for the list. Numerious people in these forums have contributed their lists and this was an extrapolation of the all the lists into one. Didn't know a sled had that much storage. Impressive.

when you have tank bag, wind sheild bag, handle bar bag, storage under the hood, storage under the seat, and saddle bags on the rear. you can carry almost everything you would ever need.
