What tools if any do you carry on your bike? What kits are available? Was looking at the Cruz tool web page but I am not familar with the quailty of their tools.

RE: Tools

In my case, TJ, I don't have much room to carry tools except for one of those little all-function things that you can strap to your belt. My main tool for on the road is about 2 1/8 x 3 1/4 and a 32nd of an inch thick, along with a cell phone. Murphy's law says no matter what I brought, it won't be what I needed.

The best tools to carry are the phone numbers of the closest bike tow truck outfit.

From reading other threads I realized that one of the small bonuses about buying a Harley in Japan is that every bike including Sporties come with a rather impressive tool kit. Since Japan is on the metric standard I suppose it's natural that this happens, but I have to say that of all the bikes I've ever purchased, the tools included are the best quality I've come across.

Cheers,
