I have a scooter that I use for my day to day work. Needless to say, I don’t have much room to carry arouond a lot of extra stuff. My scooter is very reliable, but would like to carry around something just in case. Does anyone know of a multi tool or something small i could carry around just in case something did happen.
A leatherman. They are a little expensive, but well worth it. They are very small and come in a wide array of designs for the tools you need. Now you will not be able to rebuild your scooter, but if the gas line comes off, a screw is loose or something along that line, the leatherman will work great.
I think Leatherman is the best bet. Basically it is a Swiss Army knive on roids.
We have done two reviews on the multitools and they seem to be very good. We have seen numerous guys who carry them around on a daily basis and never had any problems with them. I think it is a great idea to have something on you, just in case.

I say a table saw in case someone doesn’t pay you. You can get some pretty small kits that have different wrenchs and screw drivers at your local hardware store. I am not sure how much room you have on your hog, but I am sure some of these small kits will have everything you need.
