I just bought the Cruz Tools set for HD. Seems to be pretty comprehensive and the reviews were good. Here's the link

http://cruztools.com/

Hope this helps

Windzone make a nice kit for $80. http://www.beza.biz/windzone/catalog/ek1hd

Good quality tools as well. I have one, took a few things out, added a few others and have a pretty decent kit that fits in my saddlebag.

+1 on the Windzone kit. It has the right tool for just about anything you need for quick repairs. I keep it in my bag all the time. It is well worth the price.
