Tools you keep on you bike at all times
Just wondering what tools/gear you guys always keep on your Sporty....
I Keep a Leatherman multi-tool, Folding hex key set, Spare plug, Tire pressure gauge, Mini screwdriver with full sized interchangeable heads, Disc brake lock and a Spare pair of contacts. All this fits perfectly in a small leather handlebar pouch.

I Keep a screwdriver with interchangeable bits, a folding hex key set, a small set of torx bits, a small set of sockets, a ratchet that has a 3/8" drive on one side and 1/4" on the other, some zip ties, a small LED flashlight, a couple of various adapters and swivels for the ratchet. I keep everything in different ziplock bags to keep from digging around for things in the bottom of my tool pouch on my front fork.

Maybe if I did some long distance riding, I would carry more. Most of my riding is commuting, and I park in a rather seedy area. Besides, I prefer to keep my bike in good running order at home instead of trying to fix it by the side of the road.

Don't forget a small flashlight, in case you need help after dark. Find one that does not vibrate into the ON position (mini Maglite sucks), or can be accidentally be turned ON in the tool bag. Ask me how I know.
A small backpacking headlamp seems like a good idea too. Leaves your hands free and they don't weigh much.
