Tool Boxes
So my roomates and I have started doing all the work on our bikes our selves, chains and sprockets, exhaust systems, minor paint jobs, fender elim jobs, electrical stuff ie blinkers and what not. And after all these nights of playing motorcycles as our girlfriends like to call it, I have decided im going to embark on the journey of buying a decent tool set-up. I am currently looking at the ginourmous tool boxes and tool sets from Craftsman and Snap-On to get my collection underway. I have on my "to buy list" over $700 bucks in the basics alone. I was just curious if anyone else had one of these RR toolsets. "Race Replica Toolsets" play on words.. its late and i thought it was funny...but yeah i wsa just curious if yall would be interested in sharing?

RE: Tool Boxes
ahhhh every mans wish, an excuse to buy new tools. The only tip I have is don't waste much time on any thing but metric tools.

RE: Tool Boxes
yea buy METRIC! Everything is metric... cars, bikes, all new heavy equipment.
|
RE: Tool Boxes
Metric all the way. Dons right, Everything is metric now. Even lug nuts on cars and trucks!

RE: Tool Boxes
unless you plan to do this professionally i would just but craftsman stuff dont waste too much money on snapon both have a lifetime warranty and the snapon man dose not come to your house so it is harder to replace the tools. i have a mix of everything snapon mac matco and craftman and there all the same craftsman is the best value

RE: Tool Boxes
Yea even the mechanic at my work likes his Craftsman ratchets over his snap-on ones. Says they are nicer.... and sometimes snap-on will not give you replacements for broken tools... all depends on the salesman.s

RE: Tool Boxes
craftsman all the way, gotta love the, here's your broken socket, or here's your socket with a stuck nut that i can't get out no matter how hard i tried. GIVE ME MY NEW ONE!!!!!

RE: Tool Boxes
make sure you have a good set of allen-wrenches. when i was installing my sliders, i needed smaller ones to remove the fairings, and a huge one to take out the engine mount screws. i think it was like a 14 mm head. thats huge!

RE: Tool Boxes
Craftsman makes way better ratchets IMO , but DO NOT buy their toolboxes. I work and sears and i see how ****ty they are and how easily the break , bend , and get dinged. Look at Husky tool drawers... those last
