Motorcycle Repair: Shovel


Question
Hello. I am actually choosing my first bike which is a '75 FLH electraglide (I am used to car work and am mechanically inclined and a very patient individual) and I understand it cant just be rode without maintenance but what I wanted to ask is something I havnt got a straight answer from anyone about and that is tools.. I plan on actually using the bike and enjoying it, anything from visiting family 140 miles away to in a few years hopefully sturgis which rests right at about 1500 miles. What tools should I have with me on long trips or just ingeneral. so far I have compiled a few items being Torque wrench, Sandpaper (for plugs) and a full standard socket set. Any extra suggestions?

Answer
It doesn't matter what tools you take with you, when you break down the tool you need is at home! lol
I would add a set of wrenches and well as screwdrivers. If your bike has points I would switch it to electronic ignition. Less problems than points.
Good luck and happy riding
Mike
