I have a kit of aftermarket tools and various EXCRETA
that has served me quite well over the years, and I
can fit it all under the seat... All the tools are
Craftsmen, and hand picked, as follows:
1/4 drive rachet, fine spline
1/4 drive 3" ext
1/4 drive 6" ext
6 pt socket set, 6-14 mm ( comes with socket case if
you buy it right)
3/8 drive hex key set, 6 sizes ( Mine is Craftmen, but
I actually like the one Harbor freight sells better)
3/8 drive to 1/4 drive adaptor, important for above..
Combo wrenches 8,10,11,12,13 mm, 12 pt
Box wrenches 10x12, 11x 13mm
a four way scewdriver
small set of side dykes
( and the stock tool kit as well )
a cheap credit card style meter ( HF, $4)
about 12' of 14 ga wire in a coil
various connectors
a conventional flat repair kit
Plug and Go mini flat repair kit
Compressor ( $5 @HF, strip the guts out, put on
Battery tender terminal)
nitrile gloves
small bottle WD-40
several lengths of duct and electrical tape layered on
underside of seat pan...
I can take most of the bike apart with these tools,
they have served me well. Lemme know if you want pics
of any of this, I have them around somewhere...
