What tools and spare parts (links to each if possible) do you recommend keeping on hand for Hawk roadside repairs?

I'll get the list started:

Spark Plug, I carry the original since I replaced it with an NGK (2202) DPR8EIX-9 Iridium IX: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CSGWZC

CDI: what do you recommend

Coil, wire and boot: what do you recommend

Wrenches: I hate Crescent Hammers, but, with all the different sizes of bolts, should I go this route, and if not, what sizes do you recommend? I know I need 14mm, 17mm, and 19mm for the front and rear axles.

Tire spoons

Tube patch kit

Air pump: I'm going with a Topeak Mountain Morph Pump, but, feel free to offer any other suggestions: http://www.pricepoint.com/Brand/Topeak/Topeak-Mountain-Morph-Pump.axd

tools required for a carb removal. 10mm and flat screwdriver.
chain master link in case of a break.

8, 10, 12 mm wrenches and/or sockets for just about every other bolt. I have done more roadside repairs than I'd like to admit but I carry complete metric wrench set, 1/4 and 3/8 ratchet with a few select sockets. 19,17,10,8 mm. A few zip ties, couple extra bolts and electrical tape and jammed into a small bag. Seems to work. Extra cdi and coil/wire lives in the old airbox.

Chain master link is a good idea for more reasons than a break..... pretty easy to lose when breaking the chain to remove the rear wheel. I would have forgot about it had you not reminded me.
