Emergency Kit?
What do you people carry on the bike as far as an emergency kit? (not band-aids or just a cell phone for road side assistance!) If there has been a lot of talk on this...I would appreciate a link.
I always had kits on my dirt bikes (and my road bikes) and although I haven't got my motor-bike on the road yet (close!) I'm already thinking about this emergency kit.

Re: Emergency Kit?
Just think of all the tools you used to build it... Also, throw in some nuts & bolts & other things like that!

Re: Emergency Kit?
All I carry is a screwdriver and a pair of vice grips, not to mention my coffee thermos.......I never leave the house without that!

Re: Emergency Kit?
I used to carry tools.
I used them once, and that was voluntary...I decided to lube the gears in the Autozone parking lot....
Never needed any when I was out there.
