Tenere custom tool set
 
Over the years I have mixed and matched odds and bobs that i have found lying around to create a tool set for my Tenere that should be more useful than the oem tool set. My goal in creating it was to end up with a compact flexible set that could virtually disassemble the Ten to the bone.
I recently replaced the tatty Yamaha bag I was still using by a bigger and stronger bag and figured I might as well take some pics and share.

The bag is a Bo-camp tent peg bag. Nice strong fabric that should last better than the Yammie one. And also large enough to use as a tool blanket on the road.
Upper half, top to bottom:
- Spark plug tool. Not the original Tenere one, but I think I recycled it from the Diversion 900 that I rode years ago.
- double ended spanners: 8+10, 10+11, 12+13
- handle part of 1/8" T-piece
- elbow for T-piece to get at the difficult spots
- short extension for the T-piece
- 1/4" bit holder for the bits at the bottom of the pic
- long extension for the T-piece
- crappy pliers, will probably get rid of these as I always carry a multitool in the tank bag as well.

Bottom half:
- 1/8" 8, 10, 12mm sockets
- 1/2" 12, 13, 14, 17, 19, 22mm sockets
- bits: 3 x flat head screwdriver, 3 x philips screw driver, 4 x allen bit (of which I probably don't need the largest, but there was a hole in the rubber holder I grabbed from another set)
- Motion Pro 24mm 3/8" socket adapter
- 3/8" to 1/2" adapter
- 3/8" bit holder

not pictured:
- set of mechanics gloves
- 2 x 28mm tyre irons
- motion pro T6 24mm combo wrench / tyre iron
- 14mm allen socket for front wheel
- ty wraps of various length
- small roll of tape
- strip of Loctite metal magic steel
- tube repair glue and patches
- spare 21" inner tube
- plastic hose for siphoning fuel

all of this fits in a tool tube and a Wolfman fender bag. I also carry some Optimate leads and clamps in the tank recess, for charging bike-to-bike on the road.

I probably could still optimize by getting rid of the 1/2" sockets and 3/8" to 1/2" adapter and replacing with 3/8" sockets, but as mentioned this stuff I just happened to have lying around.
I am also not sure I need all of the larger socket sizes for the Ten.

Any other important stuff I may be missing according to you guys (besides consumables like spark plug, fuses, ...)
