Found out today new baggers don't come with tool kits. I just feel better with some tools in my saddlebag that give me a chance to keep limping along.
Does anyone have a recommendations for decent roll or kit that has a chance of covering roadside repairs for a newer bike? Thinking I could put something together piece by piece but see bunch on amazon and ebay but not sure which one to consider.

I've been carry a Cruz Tools Roadtech H3 kit for 16 years. Only time it's ever been used is when I lent a wrench to someone at a rest stop. Great thing about having one with you pretty much guarantees you'll never need it.

thanks that looks like a great one. I hear ya on the having and not needing, better than the other way around. it's on my list now...
I freely admit I don't know my bike as well as I should, but I'm learning. I've only had it for 5 weeks. It goes in on Tuesday for its 1000 mile service. I've been debating whether to buy a kit or build one as I learn what I may need. And as an extension, if I build it, how do I organize/store it? So far, I've used a couple allen wrenches, 2 different size phillips screw drivers, a 3/8", 7/16" and a 1/2" wrench / sockets on the bike. My slip-ons required a 5/8" on one side and 15mm on the other for the main clamp nuts. That seemed odd, but that's what fit and I reused the stock clamps since they only had 11 miles on them.
They fit down in the recessed bottom of the saddle bags. They don't take up any usable space at all.
You can buy just the bags, or various levels of tool contents.
I just purchased the empty bags, and used my own tools.
Also, you can see I added the tire patch kit from Stop & Go

You'll never learn anything about it having dealer work on it. Cold hard fact.
