We've had this discussion before. All ya have to carry is a gun. Free gas, free cash, free meals,,, Anything you need is just a click away!
Now, if your a non-toter like myself, and you've done enough wrenchin to know the most commonly used stuff,,, carry that,,,, so you can help the guys who ran outta ammo,,
Try to score a tool kit from a crashed Goldwing. I got my tool kit out of my totaled 2008 when I took my stuff out. The screw driver is a Japanese Industrial Standard type, not a phillips. Very handy to have to prevent rounding the head on JIS screws.

If I can't fix it, I will fix it so no one can fix it.
On my trip to Wisconsin,I carried a set of channel locks,pair of needle nose pliers,both types of screwdrivers and a crescent wrench and tire gauge.I bought a tire repair kit with compressor while I was there.(probably should have picked up a couple of the cartridges but..)
The only thing I needed was the needle nose pliers as my helmet lock would not open on the way back. Yes my helmet was attached to it and I wont ride without it. Plus wasn't going to have it banging around on the saddlebag.
I'll start looking for a goldwing toolkit just in case. But it's a gold wing , I shouldn't need this stuff right Damn helmet lock....and I have roadside service with my insurance.....

I picked up a goldwing oem kit off of ebay a few months ago. After looking at it and the bike for a while I decided that while I feel good having it along, I likely will not need much other than a hex wrench or occasional screwdriver to tighten a loose fastener. I thre a few zip ties and a roll of duct tape in just in case as well.
I also carry a phone, and taped a credit card on the bike should I get separated from my wallet.
I'll show you mine if you show me YOURS!!!
