12 Tools and working facilities if expense rules this out a set of combination spanners open ended at one end and with a ring of the same size at the other will provide a good compromise Another item which is so useful it should be considered an essential requirement for any home mechanic is a set of socket spanners These are available in a variety of drive sizes It is recommended that the Vz inch drive type is purchased to begin with as although bulkier and more expensive than the 3 8 inch type the larger size is far more common and will accept a greater variety of torque wrenches extension pieces and socket sizes The socket set should comprise sockets of sizes between 8 and 24 mm a reversible ratchet drive an extension bar of about 10 inches in length a spark plug socket with a rubber insert and a universal joint Other attachments can be added to the set at a later date Maintenance and minor repair tool kit Set of spanners 8 24 mm Set of sockets and attachments Spark plug spanner

list of the tools made by the machine s manufacturer to carry out a specific task on a limited range of models Occasional references are made to such tools in the text of this manual and in general an alternative method of carrying out the task without the manufacturer s tool is given where possible The tools mentioned in this list are those which are not used regularly and are expensive to buy in view of their infrequent use Where this is the case it may be possible to hire or borrow the tools against a deposit from a local dealer or tool hire shop An alternative is for a group of friends or a motorcycle club to join in the purchase Valve spring compressor Piston ring compressors car type see text Universal bearing puller Micrometer set Vernier calipers Dial gauge set Cylinder compression gauge Vacuum gauge set Multimeter must be used with great care see text Care and maintenance of tools Whatever the quality of the tools purchased they will last much longer if cared for This means in practice ensuring that a tool is used for its intended purpose for example screwdrivers should not be used as a substitute for a centre punch or as chisels Always remove dirt or grease and any metal particles but remember that a light film of oil will prevent rusting if the tools are infrequently used The common tools can be kept together in a large box or tray but the more delicate and more expensive items should be stored separately where they cannot be damaged When a tool is damaged or worn out be sure to renew it immediately It is false economy to continue to use a worn spanner or screwdriver which may slip and cause expensive damage to the component being worked on Repair and overhaul toolkit Fastening systems The tools in this list are virtually essential for anyone undertaking major repairs to a motorcycle and are additional to the tools listed above Concerning Torx driver bits Torx screws are encountered in two places inside the engine unit It is therefore recommended that if Torx bits cannot be borrowed from a local dealer they are purchased individually as the need arises They are in regular use in the motor trade and will therefore only be available in specialist tool shops or auto accessory shops Fasteners basically are nuts bolts and screws used to hold two or more parts together There are a few things to keep in mind when working with fasteners Almost all of them use a locking device of some type either a lock washer locknut locking tab or thread adhesive All threaded fasteners should be clean straight have undamaged threads and undamaged corners on the hexagon head where the spanner fits Develop the habit of replacing all damaged nuts and bolts with new ones Rusted nuts and bolts should be treated with a rust penetrating fluid to ease removal and prevent breakage After applying the rust penetrant let it work for a few minutes before trying to loosen the nut or bolt Badly rusted fasteners may have to be chiseled off or removed with a special nut breaker available at tool shops Flat washers and lock washers when removed from an assembly should always be replaced exactly as removed Replace any damaged washers with new ones Always use a flat washer between a lock washer and any soft metal surface such as aluminium thin sheet metal or plastic Special locknuts can only be used once or twice before they lose their locking ability and must be renewed If a bolt or stud breaks off in an assembly it can be drilled out and removed with a special tool called an E Z out Most dealer service departments and motorcycle repair shops can perform this task as well as others such as the repair of threaded holes that have been stripped out Plastic or rubber soft faced mallet Torx driver bits Pliers electrician s side
