Ive made my own tool kits.....Id go to Pawn Shops and buy used name brand tools. Craftsman, snapon, Kobalt...etc.
Go through the bike......only get wrenches and sockets that fit something on the bike. Same goes with Allen wrenches and torx. Definitely carry the odd 10mm wrench for the battery. Long trips far away....the 36mm axle wrench. Mini size multimeter plus zip ties and electrical tape.
I dont like cheap no name tools that fail at bad times. I also dont like carrying extra tools that fit nothing on the bike.
Ill try to fix.....then its a call for wrecker.
I would like to add though....everyone should have their service manual and owners manual in digital form on their phone. It might just be an easy fix.

Thanks to all for your very welcome responses. I made a list from several of your suggestions and went out to the garage and found that I have most of the tools from duplicates in my roll-away. There are just three items that I'll need to buy. I'm leaving Sunday morning for a 3,400 mile trip. I feel better prepared now.

Tire pressure gauge.
Tools to remove/install battery.
Torx sizes for derby cover and handlebar switch housings.
Tools to replace any bulb on the bike.
Tire plug kit, and air pump.
When on a trip, I also carry the tools needed to remove wheels/adjust belt.
