That small 12 point socket needed to pop your rear brake pads, 1/4 inch I think..
You can never have enough zip ties...
I have small butane soldering iron that has come in handy a time or 2. It also has a nozel attachment so it becomes a mini blow torch if you ever need some heat. Packs up in 2.5 x 6 inch box, so takes up almost no space.

Not sure about the lightsticks and air pump, but I keep some Romeo Y Julieta (Cedro Deluxe No. 2) in my Fork Bag. Good call on the bourbon. I'll have to put one of my flasks in there as well.

If your in socal, wouldnt worry too much. there is a shop or dealer just about everywhere.
Out here, we also carry an emergency throttle repair kit and the belt repair kit (although it rarely works). And tire plugs. Check your spoke rim, it may be tubeless, my 2008 FXDC spoked wheels are tubeless.

I have compiled a chart of the most comprehensive tool list. The essentials which feature in a number of tool kits and what a lot of members of the forum have posted is highlighted in yellow. Take a look & pick & choose as per your convenience. The best advice that I read on the forum was to carry only those tools which one needs for repairs that one has the skill to perform.
