I know there is another thread on tool kits, but it looks more like a garage list. A touring kit is an exercise in compromise. For example, I do not carry a pair of 18" breaker bars and 36mm sockets in case I have to adjust my belt. Here is a list of what I have in my traveling kit. I would like to hear any suggestions anyone else has. 8" adjustable wrench Long-nose pliers w/wire cutters ratcheting screwdriver w/slot, #1 & 2 phillips, #27 Torx, 3/32, 5/32, 3/16, 1/4" 4mm & 5mm hex bits 1/4" combination wrench 1/2" Combination wrench w/ratcheting box end 3/8" socket adapter for 1/2" wrench 3/8, 7/16, 1/2, 9/16, 3/4 (deep), 10mm, 12mm sockets 3" socket extension 8mm Allen wrench 1/4" Allen wrench (shortened to reach primary adjuster without removing muffler) Small tube of blue lock-tite Assorted zip-ties Hose clamps Bailing wire Black electrical tape 20amp fuses Am I missing anything? I don't want to be the guy who realizes for the first time that he needs something when he is 50 miles from the nearest Sears. (Message edited by gunslinger on May 29, 2007) | ||

Good "tight" list, I would delete the clamps since you have the zip ties and add a small LED flashlight and possible a pocket utility knife, then wrap everything up in a "cleaning" rag. | ||

I have an '07 Uly and recently pulled the plugs. I now know that I would also need a 5/8" socket, U-joint and long extension to get to the rear plug. Hope I never have to do that on the road, but I think it's what I'd need. Probably a 5/8" wrench too for the front plug. |
