I came up with the following list for "everyday" riding. Having a cell phone to call a freind to come get you is at the top of the list by the way...lol


Locking pliers ( leatherman "crunch")
Metric socket set with wrench and 6" extension bar and universal joint
Set of metric combination wrenches
Multi-blade screw driver
10 ft. of wire (14 gauge)
Small roll of tape
Allen wrenchs
Spark plug wrench ( sorry do not know size..use stock one)
Small flashlight (AA 2 cell)
Several paper towels and a tube of Hand cleaner and a few non metric wrenchs if you need them for "american" accessories.......


Get a "Leatherman Tool". Or a knockoff of it. That will illiminate alot of other single tools you have listed. A small roll of black electrical tape always comes in handy too. Flemdog

I started a practice awhile back so that when I had to go to the toolbox to get a tool to work on the bike, be it pliers, tape, allen wrenches, sockets, open-end wrenches, I just kept it with the bike tools. If it turned out I needed them somewhere else around the house I would make a note to buy the replacement next time I was a Sears. That way I had the right sized tool with the bike without carrying around a full set of allen wrenches and still had a full set for the home. Gandalf

Here's what I have in my toolkit

Small First aid kit
Small flashlight
Subway sandwich bags (keeps feet warm/dry)
Complete socket set 4mm-19mm, and 5/32"-7/8"
Two spark plug sockets (18mm and 5/8")
Utility Knife
Channel lock pliars
Full set of Allen wrenches
Wire cutter/stripper
Regular pliars
Large & small needle-nose pliars
Small pointed vise-grips
Swiss army type knife
Several phillips and regular screwdrivers of various sizes
Sharpie marker pen
Wire and electrical tape
Duct tape
Telescoping magnet stick
Small wire brush
Tire repair kit
Metric wrenches: 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17mm
Standard wrenches: 5/16, 3/8, ½
Assorted nuts, bolts, and washers
Twist ties
Spare set of plugs
Spare bulbs (H4 headlight, 1156, 1157)


most of it fits in a soft leather "shave kit" that I bought at Wal-Mart. The socket set has its own little pouch, and a few of the items are neatly stowed in my saddlebags along with my rainsuit and other stuff I might need. Because of the weight, I carry the sockets and "shave kit" in my Tour Trunk, which rests on the luggage rack.
