I picked up this tiny tool set this weekend to carry in my scooter. Also tossed in an actual 1/4" ratchet and a driver handle for those bit s. This should take care of just about any problems I may have while riding.

Since we can’t make the Gambler 500-Illinois this year , my buddy and I are planning to take another long scooter ride like we did last year. Will we be riding 492 miles again? Not likely. I bet a few hundred will tick off on the do though come the last weekend of September.

Unless it rains. Then we're going to hop in the truck and go exploring.

I have a little screwdriver with various heads in the door of the Fiat, mostly because I don’t need a torx for anything but the brake lights on it (that I’ve discovered yet).

I was very proud of myself when we had to use it to get into a project site for work because the contact had shown up without tools.

I have found tha a T-25 Torx will lock/unlock panic bars, or as the guy from the school said: dogged down.

Hmmm - I had written off craftsman but that looks interesting for sure. You pick that up at lowes? That looks like an awesome little toolkit to keep in the car or on the bike.

HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles > shop-teacher

When I had my moped I kept an assortment of tool in my backpack. I forgot about them until I went to fly to North Carolina and my bag got pulled at security. I lost 2 flat head screwdrivers, a vicegrip, and a 10 mil flare wrench.

I too had written off Craftsman, but I have heard that after Stanley bought the brand, that they were investing a bunch of money into bringing the quality back. The sockets have their sizes nicely etched, and the liner in the case in a nicely moulded piece of rubber. It’s quite a nice little set. First Craftsman stuff I’ve bought in some time.

I bought it Farm and Fleet.

My motorcycle came with a factory tool kit, it’s complete enough I could completely disassemble the bike if I were so inclined.

i met a guy in nh with a rokon (the 2wd go anywhere hydrostatic all terrain scooter?) he said it was build and designed to only need 3 sizes of wrench which comes with it also in a neat little kit.
