    Motorcycle Toolkit Checklist?

    I have a Yamaha TW200 and I'm wondering is there a motorcycle tool-kit available? I know the bike already has a tool-kit, but not sure it's enough. Any recommendations are appreciated.

    Tire plug kit. Very cheap and can be a life saver for yourself or anyone you ride with. Works for cars too.

    Not sure if the TW200 is tubeless. If it is then ya I tire plug kit but if it isn't then you should think about carrying around spare tubes, and practice changing them with just the tools in your backpack/toolkit.

    You're right, the TW200 tires have tubes. So would be a repair kit for tubed tires. There are products like Slime (http://www.slime.com/) for tubed tires, that would be the quickest option to repairing the tire until you could repair it properly or replace the tube.

    Small vice grips (clamp them on to the stub of your broken levers after a crash), stainless steel wire and zipties
