This device, a little bigger than an iphone, or another brand. Lowe's and Home Depot have one at less cost, but I can vouch for this one.

A guy had a weak battery and didn't turn his ignition off, used it to jump his bike, worked easily.

This saved him a lot of time and expense, and i got to see it in action.

Plus it has attachments to charge iphones, other phones, etc.

 

There are still lots of places with no cell service. And even places that only accept cash. I carry more tools then I need.

 

I got a complete tool kit, tire repair kit; spare bulbs, duct tape, flashlight, etc, etc. The thing is, I rode almost 20,000 miles and it was balast. The only tools I used where a small crescent wrench and an Allen wrench to tighten up my coffee cup holder.

The only mechanical work I did was at my brothers and we used his tools.

But the tools do give me a bit of comfort knowing they are there.

 

forced to change clutch plates mid trip, had everything except an 11/16" socket. also pack a 3/8" hex to check trans fluid level.

*Bourbon
*Glock .40

I 100% agree with IM.Especially reception and cash.
