You forgot to add a bolt stretcher.

No blinker fluid or flagpole keys?

Believe it or not, I found a solution to the light sensor problem !  I purchased a pair of Buzzing magnets. (toss them in the air, and they make an annoying buzzing sound as they bounce together on the way down.) (Just keep them out of the hands of twelve -year-old boys.)  I placed them into a plastic cigar tube (Cuesta Rey) and zip tied them onto the center sand under the bike. When I come to a traffic light, I have only to stop momentarily, wait for the traffic to clear, and procede on my way.  It is no credit to the magnet gizmo, but rather to the Tennessee legislature they have written into the law a provision to allow  Motorcycles to "run red lights" provided they don't cause a traffic hazard.

  Read the new Wisconsin motorcyle handbook and we are also given the ability to proceed through red lights.  Says we have to wait 45 seconds then proceed through cautiously.  Suppose I'll wait a whole light cycle before I do it.  Haven't tried it yet.

 On the way home from the grocers last night I discovered a un cooperative light in my home town. Looks like I will be tearing apart the microwave.

    These sensors do NOT work on the weight of the vehicle. It is entirely based on magnetic field. The mass of metal in the field is the trigger. Sensitivity can be adjusted for smaller masses of metal, but the installers are automobile oriented so they set the field to trip with a couple of thousand pounds of metal. The suggestions I made sometimes help by positioning the bike at the most sensitive point of the sensor grid. Revving the engine adds a small amount of electrical impulse that may help in a marginal situation.

Thanks Vince for clarifying that the sensors detect interruption in the magnetic field and are not triggered by the weight of the vehicle.  I am searching for laws in my state for motorcyclists.

Found an interesting article in Wikihow on this topic -

Will try some of the suggestions you and that article have made.

I tried the magnet thing years ago when everyone had metal garbage cans, after a mile or so it was way too noisy.

Br. Cy, did you paint NEWLY WED signs on those lids?

Called my state DOT and spoke to an employee about use of magnets on motorcycle.  His reply was they would not work because it would require very large and strong magnet.  He suggestion was to talk to local town office for problematic intersections of small residential roads and to state (his office) for county (state roads) and they will send someone to check the sensitivity.  He also said that bicycles or scooters can have problems at lights but motorcycles are generally OK.  Moroever, newer intersections have motion sensitive cameras that detect movement and trigger switch to change light.
