Who carries a fire extinguisher with them?

Hi all.. just had the mother of all oven fires while cooking the ex girlfriend's dinner. Have soot all over the place and you won't believe how far a kilo of baking soda can travel around your house when it is under pressure.

Anyhow... started me thinking.. fires start easily.. once saw a guy drop a Suzuki TS185 in the bush. It burst into flame and about a dozen guys took turns pissing on it to try to put it out..

Was not successful at all.

So.. after tonights episode.. I am thinking of mounting an extinguisher on my KLR!

Any comments, experiences or suggestions?

:eek1:eek1

in the name of sweet baby cheeses
take a chill pill snapper
its all gunna be alright

Been lookin at this one for the KLR



And this one incase i buy one of them orange bikes one day



But honestly i have never given it a thought

if your klr caught fire you would try and put it out :huh
thats what insurance is for

It can happen... but no, I don't carry a fire extinguisher. :)

Interesting point.. the answer to this is.. it would depend on how far I had to walk home!

this thread just fires me up

your bike is on fire i would suggest your walkin anyway

fire in the kitchen isn't much fun.

less mess with one of these, and less chance of spraying burning oil everywhere if not used to using extinguishers . . . .

DCP makes a mess
CO2 extinguishers leave no residue, and are good for chilling beer

I have actually considered getting one of these from Supercheap...

Only about the size of a large spray tin.

A TS185 on fire, what a waste of good piss.

Fire blanket is good for range top fires.. but i would not have been able to get it in the oven this time. Extinguisher put it out in a heartbeat. Now I have powder everywhere....

A bottle of lemonade or beer, shaken not stirred, will achieve the same result.

Mate when I moved in here in 96 there was a brass one of those screwed to the wall... empty of course.
