I don't carry much, really. I try to have a flashlight, a multi-tool, and a screwdriver or two.
I actually try and carry a flashlight and mult-tool on me at all times---scootin' or not.
Most flashlights I have get destroyed over time if kept under the seat or on my keychain. The beauty of having a jacket in the cooler months.

I carry too much stuff.
Extra carb. Came in handy when installed one failed flooding
2 feet of fuel hose
zip ties
extra spark plug
stock coil and cdi I have in the frame as back ups
stock fuel "pump" in frame
2 valve stems and 6" C clamp
MM sockets/wrench
Fuses
Philips and flathead screw drivers and attachments
Wires
Next I'm getting an extra battery so I don't have to fix my kick start.
I Help! sign would be good to have too.
People on the road keep jumper cables with them so it just takes nice trustworthy people who aren't there to rob you

One of those headband mounted flashlights (like a miner wears) so both hands are free to fix what is broken, plus the light is always shining where you are looking. Petzl LED are best. |

a large display tire pressure gauge as the pen type are not that good , as easy to read or as accurate Milton S-920 is a reliable pen type. Joes Racing 32307 for large display type. |

I carry certain tools. small cresent wrench- tighten up many bolts straight and phillips scewdriver - body panel 8mm wrench- for valve adjust 17 mm socket- in case rear tire becomes loose. Big socket wrench Little socket wrench Spark plug wrench 10 mm socket- takes off exhaust.. 98% of the time, I will have no problems with the scooter, but that 2% of the time, I will be prepared if something goes wrong. Spark plug fowl out pretty easily. On my Bali scooter it never fowls out.. But like on my friends scooter, a Quinqi, it fowl out spark plugs in less than a 100 miles. Attachments:

I had to ditch all my tools so I could fill the underseat area with boxes of condoms; for all the ladies I've been meeting now that my "car" is a scooter. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH just kidding ;p

I updated my tools and various items that I carry, the other day. It's basically a few different sized bungee cords, pocket knife, multi-tool, phillips, flathead(long enough to reach air/fuel mix on carb), 8,10,12mm sockets (or U.S. equiv.), various screwdriver bits, headlamp, emergency pancho, insect repellent, and a ziplock bag that contains: latex gloves, folded shop paper towels, valve cap, electrical tape, and a few mini zip-ties. All of it fits conveniently in a zippered pouch (with plenty of extra room) in the seat compartment. I couldn't find my tire gauge, but that will be in there soon. Possibly a few electrical connectors, since they're light and don't take up any room really. 
Everything in the pouch:  |

Thanks for the heads up. Looks like I'll be going with the Pixa 3 (at several ERT / Rescue supply sites it seems to be in standard use.)  |
