I have a Windzone tool roll. It has most of the stuff you need for minor repairs.

http://www.beza.biz/windzone/catalog/ek1hd

I added a couple of vise grips, and a Craftsman Torx set. I keep an extra front headlight bulb and the 40 AMP maxi fuse on the bike. I rolled a couple of feet of very strong carpet tape on a pencil and keep it with it. It will stick most anything to something

Also bought a very compact Coleman emergency blanket. It has multiple uses, drop cloth, picnic table cover, rain shield.

The Snap-on kit made for HD is probably better but at almost 3 times the price.

I have a Gerber multi-tool, a flashlight, a set of Torx wrenches and a tire pressure gauge in my tool bag.

This is a good start... That's what I did. Add a few other wrenches and screwdrivers.

I would be carefull using cheap torx. They strip to easy. so I bought the 20$ Lyle set at sears.
When I go on a trip I carry
I carry a set of metric wrenches 11-14. Torx bits, and allen wrench bits, also a socket wrench. and a good vice grips.

And most importantly!

I guess if you need a hole punched in something, that will do the job.
