Do you take out and keep the toolkits from your bikes? I dont. They aren't the best tools in the world but are handy should you get caught at the roadside needing one of them. Yet despite their mediocre quality I rarely get bikes with them left in?

I dont bother with them.

How much does a custom toolkit cost? I'll have to remember to knock that much off the price of my next bike if it's missing. I'm sure that may help it mysteriously reappear from the seller's garage.

Go and price up 6 spanners, 4 allen keys, engineers pliers and a T handle spark plug wrench. And a couple of screwdrivers, that will do most stuff you need.

I've got both sets from the sv's I have owned.
If anybody is desperate enough for a really crappy toolkit let me know. ![]() |

The tool kits are ****e, make up my own kits from my garage tools and leave it under the seat. If I didn't need the toolkit course I'd leave it with it's bike.

I got a free toolkit with a subscription to TWO or visordown as they're now called. It was the main reason i subscribed.. I've got that lot in a little tupperware box under the seat, along with some fuses, tape, pliers etc. Hopefully I'll never need it, I look after the bike in the first place.
