With a fork bag and limited space a leatherman or swiss army knife,couple wire tires,very small adjustable wrench, a screw driver that pulls apart and has a phillips on one end and straight on the other. Electrical tape (half roll), couple wire ends, one deep socket, a stubby ratchet and two spark plugs. Also if the room they make a temporary clutch cable repair kit from JP cycle. All this will fit in a VERY small tool bag. When you have a chopper YOU KNOW.

PS Every body loves ya too cause they always need your stuff.

I also recommend a small pen light flashlight in case you run into problems at night

I also carry spare turn signal bulb and one of each fuse. Zip ties, wire, multitool and flashlight are the must.

Check out the Windzone tool kits. I've got one in the toolbox on the side of my bike. Pretty much everything I could possibly need.

I've got a swingarm bag on the way from SO Kustoms and I have a tool kit that is actually an old screw driver zip case. I don't keep the screw drivers in there so I just put tools in all the alastic loops. I've got screw driver with several different bits, hex keys, a whole set of standard wrenches, some fuses, a pocket knife, and flashlight. The case will only take up a small part of the swing arm bag so i will still have room for bandanas, rain gear, and glasses, etc. I'll post pics when I get the swing arm bag.
