Here is a list of basic tools you will need, you likely have most of the basics already:
Set of screwdrivers
Set of metric box wrenches (a.k.a. spanners if you're in the UK) 6mm - 17mm
Set of open ended wrenches (or a combination set)
Metric socket set
Torque wrench (well worth it, fixing stripped bolts is more money/hassle than properly torquing them)
Tweezers
Set of pliers (needle nose, slip joint, etc)
Plenty of rags
Nice to have tools:
- Impact driver (the kind you hit with a hammer $20)
- Depending on what you do you may need a 19mm and some larger ones (I wouldn't buy them until you need them)
- Compression tester (~$30)
- Carb sync tool ($40-$80 needed if you need to sync your tools, buy it once and for the price of a single carb sync by a mechanic you can sync them yourself as many times as you want)
- Tap/die set (needed to fix stripped holes)
- Helicoils (buy as needed to fix stripped holes)
- oil change pan (you should really be changing your own oil)
I'm sure others will chime in, but that list should be a good start.
