$75 and nothing to spend it on...

[Kijona]

Got a $75 gift card for Amazon.com and I've really got nothing to spend it on. Thinking I might order some stuff for my bikes but I don't know what. Just bought a new chain and sprockets for my 07, my 98 has like no miles on its chain...

Oil filters? 

Suggestions??

Oil filters? 

Suggestions??

drain plug gasket
air filter

tires
chain lube
cleaners
wax
raingear
boots
gloves (warm weather, cold weather
new visor for helmet
tools
valve tool
tire irons
t handle socket tools
led light bulbs / kit
warm weather jacket
battery tender

I could go on and on...that $75 would be gone in one second!

Pick up some motorcycle touring books and find a new place to ride your bike.  And a nice tank bag is always a good purchase

Heated gloves?

LED lights

save it for a time you may need it

Out of all those things the only thing I don't have is a battery tender and that's because I ride my motorcycles 12 months out of the year.

I might save it for use when I need to replace the airfilter - which will be a while since I just replaced it!

Haha, well, thanks but no thanks! XD

I'll probably just keep it. I'm sure I'll find a use for it

Save the $$ for "consumables"   oil, filters, tires etc.....you will need this type of stuff eventually!

Do I detect a bit of sarcasm? :p

The GS is not my first bike by any means, heh. Between my father and I we have probably close to 5 sets of every tool you could imagine (they're somewhere!) because they'd get misplaced so we'd just buy more. Not expensive tools but tools nonetheless.

I think I will just save my money for a set of new tires. It'll be a while but $75 is almost half of a decent set of tires!

Sarcasm?   Me?  sarcasm??

No,  it's more like envy!!

Actually, the "list" I gave you is about evrything I purchased in the last two years...so I already have all of that too......but I get e-mail ads from about 6 motorcycle places every day...each of these places has about 10,000 items....I'm sure I could spend $75 in short order if I had to.

In fact, if I won the lottery, I could spend all of that as well!

Tires? Good idea...or just save your $$$ "for a rainy day" as they say!
