You don't need to carry full sets of sockets, allen, torx, or combo wrenches. There are: you can select only the sizes your bike uses, which is surprisingly few.
True, but it may not just be your bike that you need to fix while you are out on the road. Being able to fix a fellow rider's bike, especially a bike owned by one of the fairer sex can have its rewards
Phillips and flat screwdrivers, 3/8" ratchet with a few sockets + spark plug socket and a set of old plugs, torx and hex sockets, a couple box end wrenches, tire repair kit, small knife, electrical tape, small crescent wrench and small vise grips almost forgot a small first aid kit. I have aaa...did you have to pay extra to add the motorcycle? How much?
i ride the smokys at least twice a year and often with others from florida and my homestate of KY... after having one of us breakdown for the third time this past april.. i decided to add aaa motorcycle to my autos... only 35 bucks... the beauty is it works for anyone who is with you....
Sorry OP, as this isn't a pic yet of what's in my bags, but I wanted to show you what I carry them in. I use the pouch set from Innovative Storage Solutions, and it fits right into the groves at the bottom of the saddle bag so it really takes up very little bag space. They sell full tool kits, but you can get the bags empty and compile a nice tool set much cheaper. Here they are: https://www.storagepouches.com/produ...4-pc-pouch-set

Haha, yeah I have noticed nobody has posted a pic of their tool bag/contents! But that's ok, I'm getting a pretty good idea what I need to be gathering up to stock mine with 🙂
Modern day motorcycles, even Harleys, are pretty reliable these days, a good pre-maintanence routine can keep on road break downs to a minimum. I just carry the basic tools I need to do minor repairs or get me to a place for bigger repairs. A couple of adjustable wrenches, multi screw driver, vice grips, torex/allen wrenches and zip ties to name a few. If I don't have enough tools, CAA/AAA and a credit card.
