It did! It came with a funky little tank holder (remember that thing you took out the bag that was just a little metal rod with rubber nubs at each end? Yeah, that's to hold the tank up like you would a car hood). And an allen wrench. That's the extent of my tool kit.

And Stevo, I always have my chapstick with me! But I'd like to be able to stick it in the bag instead of in a pocket. I only has so many pockets to spare!

My tool kits on both of my bikes have pretty much anything you would need roadside. Need anything else, you got real issues. lol

All that in mine, plus probably the most important. Tire plugs, CO2 and small gun for application of CO2. Don't realize how important that is untill you need it.

You forgot to add a microfiber cloth, Guy. Need that to wipe bugs from your shield and wipe your mirrors.

I was just thinking that this morning. Think I'll wait to see if anything pops up on a Black Friday sale on any of the sites.
