how mechanically inclined are you , screwdriver, pair of vice grip for some , half the tool box for others. The harley 12 in one screwdriver that has torx and reg bits and nut driver is pretty handy for most everybody and will do a lot for no space . some of the cruise tools sets are pretty complete and will do a almost anything you need to do on the side of the road. a few fuses and bulbs are handy , really just depends of how much you want to be able to do to it when on the side of the road.

Thanks
Thanks Bob, I'll look into that HD driver set today and get a small mag light. It's a beautiful morning for a ride here in southern California. Thanks again.
