Great little tool kit

[river]

Got one of these for Christmas, on the recommendation of an old biker who works in the tool dept. It is well made, and really versatile. Can cover most needs in one little kit.

That looks like a pretty nice starter kit for a motorcycle!

I've compiled a kit much like that, buying this-n-thats from sears and elsewhere. But I throw away the case and put the tools with cheap cotton gloves, elect tape, paper towells, zipties, and other misc. items in ziplock bags.

Yeah, the case is an immediate throwaway. I'll stick them in a nice zippered bag I got at HD over the holidays, was a set of 3 different sized ones for about 5 bucks or something. Hard cases for stuff don't seem to make sense when packing for touring.

I especially like the double sided ratched with finger/thumb screws at each end. The ratchet mechanism is very fine so even if you can barely move it you can still ratchet. Really nicely made. Too bad it's not true Craftsman, Sears is going with their new brands more and more to get out of the lifetime warranty I think.

Very nice. I'll be heading to my local Sears to get one. Thanks for the heads up!!
