I bought a CruzTOOLS RTH3 RoadTech H3 Standard Tool Kit on Amazon. They really thought of just about every size tool you would need and put it in a compact pouch that doesn't take a lot of room in the saddle bag. I love it and rely on it for all the tinkering I have done.
I also have a windshield bag with a lot of stuff in it. Just off the top of my head:
- 2 little LED flashlights with extra batteries, to never be stuck in a dark parking lot again with no light!
- Kickstand pad
- Extra shades, darkened and clear
- Extra gloves
- Reading glasses (if I ever lost my main pair, which happens often, I'd be totally f'ed since I can't read crap w/o them)
- misc other items I can't remember
Need to put together a 1st aid kit!

No need for all that crap + kitchen sink...just have roadside assistance # in wallet, box of condoms, 5th of whiskey and roll of quarters. Pretty much covers all bases and lightens the load...

After reading this thread again I've decided I need to put a hitch on my train and haula spare bike with me in case of a breakdown.

the hose clamps are for fixing leaky fuel and oil lines if the existing clamp has failed. you can also do an emergency fix of a line with a hole in it. wrap it in electrical tape and then screw down a conventional hose clamp over it (not to tight, just enough). you would have to pinch the line with the vice grips above the leak before removing the existing hose clamp to stop the flow.
here is my old list for my Level 1 First Aid Kit. It has since been added to but its pretty close. this is the kit that I always have with me including on my bike. My wife has a Level one with her too. I really only use the Level 2 If I'm with more people than my level 1 could handle.
in my opinion the most import features of a good first aid kit is adequate blood stoppers/sponges, wound cleansing and coverage. get the wound under control until the professionals get there. Level 2 is a different story.
FYI i am no medical professional by any means.
