I see wire mentioned and I carry some thin stainless and a piece of coated clothes hanger about 6" long. I carry electrical tape and duct tape by wrapping it around a tool. Also a pencil type magnet.

I carry a small roll of insulated wire and wire nuts along with many of the things already mentioned. the wire has been used more to secure things on my buddy's bikes than it has for repairs on my bike.
I take a couple extra bungees to secure luggage that has gained weight on the trip or extra do dads that you pick up along the way. wound up coming in real handy on the way back from the rocky point rally, strapped some extra goodies to the top of my forks/ headlight

Tools, road coverage
I am VERY happy with my State Farm insurance, their Emergency Service, Towing and overall service including my local services. Awesome service since I retired from the Navy! I can only hope it remains so awesome when I am riding and need their services.

I like to travel lite (on and off the bike).
I carry a multi-tool similar to this one (different brand/color but looks the same):
Spare relay/Main fuse
Cash
Cell
AAA (or similar)
Zip Ties
Rag
Ziplock bag (for cell etc if rain hits)
All (except cell - that goes in jacket pocket) fits in that small "first aid kit" you can see in my sig pic by rear turn signal below
