Cell phone, HOG membership card, Credit card, and a Glock. The last is the MOST important.

Handful of instant coffee granules and a pack of Lucky Strikes. Wait; that's a road trip breakfast.

Of all the tools you can pack,remember to bringthe common sense.

Adjustable wrench, various open end wrenches, leatherman, six in one screwdriver, torx, and hex bits, fuses, small craftsmen 1/4 insocket set, spare spark plug, ties, electrical tape, flashlight, rag, small locking pliers, and a small tube of locktite. A cell phone, and at least one credit card. May seem like a lot, but I am a former grunt, and gun bunny,and go with the notion "better to have and not want, then want and not have." I have it all in a roll up tool kit and it fits nicelyright in the saddle bag.
