Worst/Most Pointless Motorbike Toolkit

[Moo]

I nominate the Triumph Daytona 675 because:

1. It only has 1 tool which is a reversable (flat/phillips) screwdriver and virtually every fastener on the bike is a hex screw!!
2. You need an allen key to take the pillion seat off to get to it!!

Couldn't agree more. Completely useless

luckily not had to look at mine yet (touches wood)

could be worse when i got the gpz all that was under the seat was a cable tie i did come in handy to secure an indicator lens that fell off

The tool kit on the rs is actualy pretty good has a couple of allen keys spark plug spanner thingy and a few other bits and bobs... well it HAD... while the toolkit was quite good it was stored under the seat... which isn't what you might call... secure, there's about 5" holes where the fairing joins up with the rear seat and whenever you go round a corner a bit energeticaly everything kind of... falls out. BUT Aprilia thought of this and came up with a fullproof solution! A RUBBER BAND! And not only that its a rubber band that doesn't actualy go back to its original size when you let it go so you stretch it over the tool kit clip it onto the flimsy plastic hook thing and then it vibrates lose in about 5 mins of riding! Keep a bottle of 2 stroke under the seat now, only thing big enough to not fall out!
Doesn't realy matter I spose I mean 2 strokes are notoriously reliable, long lasting and never ever foul plugs just for funsies ... ... ... wait...

Good 'ole british engineering... you don't need tools as it with NEVER break down!!!! ;D

The Suzuki tool kit is very comprehensive. Must be these dodgy japanese machines.

Best toolkit is the orange plastic card in my wallet with RAC on it.

but being british it wont break down will it????.....

Course not - just like that demo day where 1 decided it wouldn't start and the other shat itself just as we went to pull off lol But no need for tool kits as a simple spanner and screwdriver weren't going to fix them!

I never keep the tool kits as they usually bend on first use or chew the nut, screwhead or hex. Upgrade or ditch and use the RAC - plus my history if it breaks down its costly and properly dead

Wouldn't know what to do with it anyway, thank god for RAC and friends ;D
