Space is tight and I am not trying to rebuild the bike roadside. What compact tools have actually solved a ride-ending problem for you?

    Plug kit, compact inflator, small gauge, zip ties, tape, and the specific hex keys needed to reach the battery. A test run at home showed which factory tools were useless.

    Maintenance before modifications.

    A short charging cable and roadside-assistance details belong in the kit too. Not every failure needs a wrench.

    I added one spare lever after a simple parking-lot tip ended a friend's weekend. Verify it fits before packing it for years.

    Smooth is fast enough.
