Default RE: What do you keep in your bags?

From the days on my Shovel I still carry all my tools in my left saddlebag. It consists of a nice socket and wrench set, tool bag, filter, filter wrench, oil, and jumper cables. I also try to only use these tools while wrenching in my garage so if I'm stranded on the road I have what I need.
The right saddlebag has my rain and riding gear.

rainsuit, baseball cap, first aid kit, emergency triangles, emergency smokes, and an extra beanie in case that hitch-hiker is female and cute! I think I will take up Grumpy's suggestion there though on the TP!

Most of what islisted above plus one important item,analuminum plate to put underthe jiffystand when parking on soft ground, keep it where I can reach it from the saddle.
Lots of littlestuff thats nice to have and doesn't take up too much room: a note pad, pen, deck of cards, bottle of water, smallatlas, cotton gloves, napkins/wet naps, tooth picks, lighter ormatches a couple bucks worth of change, ear plugs, windshield cleaner,detailing spray andmicro fiber towels.

I should putan extrarain suit and aluminum plate in, my wife always seems toloose hers.

Crescent wrench, allen wrenches, star bits, bottle opener, several bungees, and three or four towels to cushion beer bottles if I have to break down a six pack for transport to the house. One cable and lock for the helmet and a disc lock. A plate to put under the kickstand if needed.
