1) Set of 6mm-17mm combination wrenches, two of the 13mm. 2) One 6mm - 19mm shallow 3/8" drive six point socket set with a ratchet handle and 3" & 6: extensions. 3) One 1/2" x 18" breaker bar with 19mm six point socket for breaking wheel lugs loose. 4) One #2 Phillips, one straight slot screwdriver. 5) About four quarts of oil 40 wt or 15/50 Synthetic. 6) One tri square drive for CV bolts. 7) It helps to have a few feet of various FI line, Vacuum lines and a good sized fire extinguisher on board. 8) In ten years of operating my 83 Air Cooled Westy the only thing I ever used from my spare parts was the oil and another 12 quarts of oil when I blew the rings off of #3 cylinder and drive 250 miles home at 35mph. 9) The tools listed in #1 -#4 are about all it takes to pull an engine and put heads on it.
