Went to store extra plugs on new Pro and found another reason they only weigh 417 lbs. - no extra plug holders. Anyone come up with a great storage method? Pics?

Thx-

The old school spring loaded plastic plug holders that we all used to have riveted to the clutch guard. Just pick a spot and rivet one on.

I take the tools out of the stock tool bag, and put them in with a larger tool kit. Then i store plugs and registration info stuff in their place...

Theirs some holders... Im sure dennis kirk, wps etc would also have them

Yes. They are still readily available. Just ask your favorite dealer to open up most any aftermarket catolog that they order through. I prefer those rather than plugs laying loose in a pouch or bag. They don't get beat around and have the electrode gap smashed frombouncing around. Gap them at home and stick them in the holder and they will be ready to use when needed.

It's funny because I hardly change plugs these days. I remember on my older Polaris and Yamaha sleds I went through several plugs a season. Now I basically do them each year. But it is a good idea to have a couple spares. Maybe one of those cheap caddies riveted in the right spot would be the ticket.

I just use one of these and stash it wherever.

I put a bit of anti-seize on the threads before putting them in the box.

Plenty on ebay for cheap. Click here

Yes, I might add, what I do keep in the stock tool pouch, I keep taped up and secure etc... Keep em from gettin banged around. They hold up very well...

Edit: keep 4 plugs I there... Figure I'm likely only gonna need 2, but I ride with many other Pro's, as well as run into Pro's alllllllll over......

2nd Edit: I'll now be doin what Oregon has pictured below........

If you ride where it's cold, put a thick rubber band around the case - the hard plastic clip that holds it closed breaks easily in the cold on that case. Been there...

you could rivet them to the inside of one of your panels easily enough.
