Tool Kits
Morning everyone....... I'm getting ready to make a crosscountry trip this July...... need an auxillary tool kit since HD doesn't give you much. I usually don't carry one but this trip is solo with the wife so no buddies tool kit to rely on. Anyone have one they can recommend?? Thanks!!!

RE: Tool Kits
I have this one and love it. Quality tools. Do a search and you'll see a couple of things you can add to it.

RE: Tool Kits
Still a work in progress, I came up with the following:

I have since removed the toiletries items and refined the tools further. Maybe I'll get some updated pics going someday soon.

RE: Tool Kits
Did a little research and looked around the bike then loaded up a sears tool bag. I had more than enough craftsman laying around but you can make a list and go to sears. They even have a bike kit that you can buy and add your list to. I am one of those people who likes to be the one to have it. I did find that the cruz tool kits are nice and started my list with one. Just try to pick an choose or you will be hauling a tool chest before you know it. Slime makes a sweet little compressor and plug kit at auto parts stores.

RE: Tool Kits
I have a Cruz Tools kit that came in a teardrop-shaped nylon bag made to fit into the tool boxes on the Fat Boy I had at the time. The kit was a little pricey, but it's a good one. The only thing I added to it was a ratchet and a few other like wire ties, etc. I also carry a Stop And Go tire plugger kit. It comes with four small compressed air cartridges which is enough air to fill any single motorcycle tire.

RE: Tool Kits
