Does any one use this type of Buell kit or can comment on its utility for carrying around? http://www.grharley.com/Buell_Tool_Kit_p/94685-03y .htm |

Looks to be a good kit, a multi tool is always useful, and a few extra bits for the kit. T27,1/4"hex bit,#2phil., and small adjustable wrench. I also carry a small role of elect. tape and plumbers,and the mini size quick jbweld kit. Thats the commute set, the traveling tool set is also a tire repair&inflate kit, a larger bit selection, a few specific parts and bolts - boot, air filter, if real long distance - a belt as well, etc. - lol - I'm that way - came in handy a few times though,and helped me not miss work - most the time its just a small adjustment type thing.

They had those on sale at that very same H-D(spit) dealer for $29 a couple of months ago. Go to Harbor Freight and buy what you need. The tools are all made in the same place, Bolly Wood, by a guy named Jtmrku or one of his skinny 8 year old relatives(sorry, it's been a long winter) |

Almost everything you need can be found here: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/201 64/309879.html?1287409218 If something isnt listed, then add to it. There isnt much you really need. Every time you work on your bike either make a list or put that tool aside for the tool kit. I used a 2 drawer tool box for the racetrack which fit virtually anything you would need to do a repair, including quite a few extras (tools and parts). |

While that says "some sockets and wrenches..." BUT WHICH SIZES?If the bike was metric only, I'd take 6,8,10,12,14,15,17 but its not.... so Blasters what size bolts are on this thing? |

Sorry, my bad. We've only listed everything to take apart the entire front end of the Blast, remove both wheels and do the primary adjustment. You'll need 3/16" allen for virtually every allen bolt on the engine, a T27 torx for almost every bolt holding the bodywork on and a T40 for the rear belt pulley (sprocket). I'm pretty sure that covers about 85% (or more) of all the sizes you'll need to work on your Blast. You can choose what to take with you. I could spend the rest of my afternoon verifying anything I might have left out...........or you could. |
