Assuming a lockable trunk so that the tools stay with the bike what would your ideal road kit be? I'm thinking a pump and spare tube are a must. What else should the well equipped cruiser carry

When I rode motorcycles in another life I used to use master links to clip the cables and wires together. Some trips I had wires hanging out at the end of a run but nobody around me ever got towed home packin' their chain! I used to carry full socket sets and just about everything I would ever need in a leather saddle bag. On these Chinafire kits all I need is a few tools and maybe a spare engine kit if I make a long trip, still less weight than the ol' saddle bag. |

Here is what I carry. The first pic are the tools, the second is where I carry it, the third is my pump that I have mounted to look like a manual oil pump. |

I could see someone pull up to their vintage bi-plane in that bike and take off into the sky... |

Hopefully, it will be re-assembled this weekend. Then, plenty of pics.
The seat was a bare seat with no upholstery I got off eBay for 12 or 15 bucks. I covered it with goat hide. |
