At the very least I like to have access to the battery, and even though it's rather easy, you do need the screw driver provided in the tool kit to get to it. I put my spanner wrench in there, and some fuses too. I put a flat tire repair kit in the storage box , and a USB charger that plugs right into my battery pig tail so I don't ever get stranded with a dead phone, given that I have service of course. ADV riders always talk about what tools they pack, because they might get stuck on some path up some mountain, but in 20 years of riding, I've never had to use any tools, except for my flat tire repair kit, once. However, I like the Honda tool kit, because every thing you need to get access to the battery or remove the side covers is there with the bike. It obviously was meant as a convenience tool kit rather than for on the side of the road repairs.
