Default Front wheel tool missing?

I was just having a look at the tool kit and realised whenever i need to get the front wheel off, its looks like I can't.

Is this something missing from the tool kit or were they all supplied without the tool needed for front wheel removal?

You're talking about the large allen key thing for the front axle ?

apparently they don't come with it in the standard kit.

Cheers Mark.

12 mm sump plug tool from your local motor parts retailer. I think mine was £1.99 in 3/8" drive. They didn't have 1/2" drive in stock. 24 mm for an SV thou cheap as chips on ebay.

It's not so much what it is, it's the fact it's not included to begin with

Yep, although I'd recommend you get he large allen key type if you want it for the tool kit, as it'll save you carrying a ratchet around.

Cheers Mark.
