I recently bought my first bike. It's a new 1983 Kawaski GPz 550. I think
it makes a pretty good starter machine -- not too massive, and it handles
predictably (so far). I also took the MSF class, which I would recomend to
any new rider. They go over a lot of stuff that's just common sense, but
it's good to have it drilled into you for a little while.

Anyway, I would like to know what more experienced riders keep in their 
toolkits (what tools and spare parts). I am particularly concerned with
things you consider necessary to keep from being stranded on day trips
(30-150 miles).

Also if you have any trouble-shooting or safety-related experiences of
general interest, please post them. Remember, "It's nice to share."

As usual, HP has nothing to do with what I say here.
