RE: Under Seat Document Bag - Is This It ?? - SportsterDoc - 03-14-2018

I have a 7 megabyte CB1100A manual found on line, the month before I bought my CB...to get familiar with it beforehand.
The paper manual is at my work bench.
Also have a "cheat sheet" of basics:

Spark plug 14 mm NGK LMAR8A-9S (stock 6817)
Air filter 17210-MEJ-981 (HFA1932)
Oil filter + wrench Honda 15410-MCE-H51
Oil filter Honda 15410-MFJ-D01
Crush washer 14 mm 94109-14000
Battery YTZ14S (O'Reilly DTZ14-S $103.99)
Regulator 31600-MGZ-J01
Stator 31120-MGC-014
Pulse generator 30300-MGC-003
Diode (fuse block) 31730-MAS-601
Relays (fuse block) 38501-MEL-003
10 amp fuses stop/horn
10 amp fuses meter illumination
10 amp fuses headlight
10 amp fuses start
10 amp fuses turn/clock

The area under the seat now contains:
Compact foot pump (over battery)
Can of SealNAir (over battery)
Plug kit (over battery)
Tool pouch (rear of fuses/cross bar)
1/4 ratchet, 3" & 6" extensions
1/4" drive 3, 4, 5, 6 & 8 mm Allen bits
1/4" drive 8, 10, 12, 14 mm hex sockets
1/4" drive #2 & #3 Phillips
Open end wrenches from my last Yamaha, including 10, 12, 14 & 17.
Larger combo wrench from my last Yamaha (19 x 22mm?)

The space for the U lock has a 24" flat bungee.

Nice to have that much space!

Geezalou Doc, it's a Honda. Chances are you are never going to need any of that. You've been riding Sportsters too long ROFL

Only for snugging mirrors after bumped.
Otherwise, mostly for helping others.
The 1/4 ratchet, both extensions and one of the Allen bits took care of issues on a friend's bike, last December. His breather hose was not seated, after a battery changed, just before a ride to the old Kelso Train Depot.
If I wanted to be better prepared to help H-D riders, I'd keep my Torx bits, also.

Since I ride mostly solo, in a lot of areas without cell service (even with Verizon), I try to be reasonably self-reliant.

I bought two 6 inch adjustable wrenches for the mirrors and a metric set of Allen keys for the mirror extenders on my CB500X. They are all under the seat of my CB1100 EX now.
