I'm looking for a "soft pack" tool kit to carry on long trips. I want more than what comes with the bike, but I'm not going to be rebuilding an engine on the side of the road. I thought I seen a seller on ebay a few years ago that sold a nice set for $50. I don't need top quality tools but I'm not interested in throw away crap that breaks the first time you use it.
I know I can make my own but the one I remember seeing had a secure place for holding each tool. Anyone have any suggestions or links?
Thanks Mac

 

Snapon.com. Check the "Cycleset" tool kit. A bit pricey, but it's compact a has about everything You will need on a trip.

 

Santa brought me Cruztools, nicely packaged and comes everything you would need to do emergency repairs. Even has bailing wire and wire ties..

 

Great post.. these I'll check into for sure.

 

for the money windzone has some nice harley sets, I have had this one for 4 years, $40.00 and use it all the time.

I love the snapon but it's more than I want to spend for an emergency or infrequently used kit. This one is more of what I'm looking for, make the fix to get me to a wrench type kit. But I've bought those cheap *** made in China tools that either break ir strip with the least bit of pressure.

So these tools hold up reasonably well?

I wish I could think of the brand that came in the red soft pack, they had a lot of good reviews at the time.
Keep em coming

 

For me...I got stuck on a trip to "Ross" with the wife one day and wondered away. I started looking at the little travel shaving kits they had on sale for $5 and started thinking...this would fit nice in one of my saddlebags. I got a rather sturdy, Fossil cordura nylon shaving kit for $5.

I loaded it with wally world tools and a few that the bike came with...enough to accomplish what I'll need on the road...to include wiring terminals, fuses, and other odds and ends. And there's an external pocket for my registration/insurance.

Cheap and I have all I need in one small pack.

 

This is what I have now and the problem is I need to try and search through the bag for a specific tool or dump everything out to find it. Either one is not an ideal situation, when you need to get off the side of a highway. I like the idea of unzipping a bag and seeing the tools available and I like looking and making sure all the slots are filled before zipping it back up. It's not a comforting feeling digging through a bag and not finding your plug wrench cuz it got cover up with gravel as you were working 4000 miles away.

 

The windzone set is actually not bad, for $40.00 it's great, I use it a lot in the garage for minor fixes and changes, It is easy to pull out for small fixes and is small for bringing with you, in four years I have used it many times mosty the hex and torx and nothing has broken yet.
