Basic Tool Kit - What Do I Need

[smo17003]

A set of UNF/UNC taps and dies can be useful for cleaning up threads etc. Nothing too expensive required if they're just for that purpose.

I don't know if it counts a s basic but I got a 3/4" dial torque wrench which could be used on left and right hand threads. They are on e-bay second hand. I use it to torque on my spinners. To get them off I have to use a copper headed hammer - size 3 from memory.
'cos I'm an idiot I am also sticking with donuts so I need large strong jubilee clips..... to get them back on again.

Just use 3 normal size jubiliee clips in series, It's much better as it gives you 3 places to adjust the fit.

On the theory that "if I have it I won't need it" I probably am a little over the top. Under the deck is spare ignition, plugs, cable ties, gorilla tape, safety wire, jack, repair manual, light bulbs, relays, ,,,

I do like your tool bag running across the tank board. Looks good! Did you make it yourself?

Very nice set up. Tool roll is very nicely done.
