tools for the road

Beside any tools in the bag that came with the bike. What suggestions does anyone have on what to carry around in their bags?

I carry the Windzone took kit in my left saddlebag. It's a nice tool kit and pretty good quality.

Also do a search, lots of good info already posted on this.

I think all bikes that have fairings come with a small tool kit.

RE: tools for the road

Maybe I am crazy but I have a rather large tool kit. every time I perform service or maint on the bike I put the tools used in a seperate area, find another the same and add to toolkit. I have a lot of duplicate tools. It weighs about 15 pounds!! I figure I would rather have them and not need them than to need them and not have them, same thing for sidearms too.
