6. When you’re broken down on the side of the road, the first tool you need is often a screwdriver or a wrench. The Versa Tool from Aerostich is a sturdy, stainless steel wrench that folds for low or high torque applications. It’s equipped with a 1/4-inch square socket stud and comes complete with a hex-tool adapter, extension, and a bit holder containing 11 various and handy hex bits including flat, Phillips and Allen drivers. Comes in a zippered nylon storage case. Tough, practical, compact and ideal for use in tight spots. Use your own favorite 1/4-inch sockets and extensions. Price: $14. More info: www.aerostich.com

7. These Motion Pro T-Handle nut drivers are handier than you’d ever imagine. Their long handles are great for reaching into tight spaces and the deep 6-point sockets make quick removal of nuts and bolts easy. Included in the set are 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 13mm, 14mm, 17mm and 19mm T-Handles finished in durable nickel pewter, and they come with a vinyl storage pouch and a lifetime replacement warranty. Price: $74.90. More info: www.motionpro.com
8. Motion Pro’s SyncPRO carb tuner is similar in function to the common mercury carb tuners, but with features that make it safer, easier to use and more convenient to store when not in use. The SyncPRO is an effective and affordable mercury-free alternative using a proprietary fluid in a unique design. Each channel is completely separate, so the tool can be used with 2-, 3-, or 4-cylinder motorcycles. The tool includes 5mm adapters to fit most Honda and Suzuki motorcycles. Optional 6mm adapters are available for use on most Yamaha models, while most Kawasaki models do not need adapters. There is a provision for storage of the adapters inside the tool body, keeping all the essential parts in one place, and a hang hook is included to clip the tool onto the handlebars of your bike for easy use. Price: $99.99. More info: www.motionpro.com
