• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

IMHO - just think about what might break and if you had the tools to do the job ....could it be accomplished .... then pick out any spare tools that you own and carry those with you. ...... Mike :thumbup:
 
I wasn't impressed with that tool kit. Seems overpriced for what's in it...and what's the 36mm socket for? The wheel nut takes a 65mm socket. If that socket was included it might be worth the price.
 
Did a response but evidently it did not post. My fault. I say to make your own tool kit.

Start with the wheel socket and a 3/8 adapter for the 1/2" hole. If needed there are lots of ratchets you can borrow if you do not carry one. Torque??? In an emergency you just stand on the darn thing off and on. Adjust that stuff later.

I also carry an air pump. It is electrical with lithium battery, charged by an SD cord that fits your outlet in the frunk. Now add a simple tire plugging tool to be ready to try and deal with flats. Add miscellaneous driver bits and a tool to hold them plus some sockets you think you might need, an adjustable wrench, a rag and whatever. Just dump that loose stuff in a bag of sorts. Throw all the mess into the frunk along with the owner's book. I also have a multi SD cord with outlets for iPhone, Garmin XT and conventional android power.

If something in that kit does not work, bring whisky and your AAA card for towing.

Haha that's awesome - thanks for sharing!
 
Whatever you get, every tool kit for any motorcycles needs a 10 MM wrench for battery posts. I got one with a 10mm socket on one end and open end other end.
