MC tools

Brick:
Many, too many to tell, years ago when I figured out that in order for me to afford this sport of riding I made up a tool kit that I carry along on my rides. This kit has served me well for many years and through some very interesting mc situations. I can and have removed my wheels while on the road to carry into a bike shop for new tires to be installed fixed many a problem. In fact other than a blown motor in which Doug Pippin rescued me I've always been able to make it to my destination.

That being said my kit is a conglomeration of a lot of tools removed from my tool box at home consequently my garage tool box has some holes in it. Plus the fact that well this kit developed by the folks at rrr tool solutions has some really great stuff developed just for us riders. So I've ordered the kit in the black bag. He has given us the code of FREESHIP which is a good discount but also on the Yamaha Super Tenere' forum he has even given us a 10% discount on orders making it an even better deal. I would think that we too could get a group discount if we were to ask... hint... hint.

Anyway go to: http://www.rrrtoolsolutions.com/ and see what you think.

After I get mine I'll let Ya'll know how it looks in real life!

These tools look nice, but I'd like to see bike model-specific tool sets, but don't know of any sources.

For example, you don't need to carry a full set of torx drivers, when your particular bike only has two size torx fastners.

Oh I'm sure I will be supplementing this kit by removing and adding a few items! Over the years with different bikes I have had to add and remove certain items. Heck just a few months ago I removed a socket that I finally realized I don't need on the Super Tenere' that I had always carried. Not a problem.

Soo, the plan is to buy a tool kit that includes lots of stuff, then take out what you don't need for the particular bike. Then you have the other stuff available to mix and match for the next bike. That makes sense, but you will have to do some head-scratching for each bike to figure out what it does and does not need.

Norm I only travel with the Super Tenere'. I intend to keep it for... well a few years so the kit won't be changing until then. And then it's only to add one or two things.
You are making this a much bigger deal than it is.
