Just Incase it's any use to anyone, Halfords got half price sale on socket sets with 20% extra off til midnight today. Just got 200 piece socket and watcher spanner set with lifetime warranty for £148! Down from 370
That's a magic bargain. Even if you've doubled up on a few spanners you already have, you're still miles ahead. Unfortunately, (or fortunately) I'm all tooled up. Even had to buy a heavier poundage torque wrench to do engine mounting bolts after I took off the crash bungs from the RR4. I think my next purchase will be a nice hydraulic scissor lift. I'm getting a tad jealous seeing the kit in some members garages/workshops.
Never have too many spanners I keep looking at lifts but dont really do much apart from tyre changes or chain adjustments so not sure I can justify one. Father in laws got one tho and he says it's great for his back
I just lie on the floor quick detailer and a microfiber fetches it all off. Only washed it twice with water as I don't like drying it. Tool kit arrived today and for under 75p an item I'm bloody impressed. Wratchet feel smooth and look decent quality. Better than pound land stuff that's for sure. Look forward to my race hooks arriving now too give then some work to do
Without doubt one of the best things I did was get a lift. Changed the front wheel chock since to a better one, more stable when mounting.
Good idea with the front chok to keep it upright, might have talk myself into one yet lol I like the abba lifts too so you can remove both wheels etc on the lift
Yep, love my Abba stand, and it's ability to suit all bikes - subject to purchasing the appropriate fitting kits.
Both have their advantages. I work on a lot of my friends Bikes and that’s where the limitations of the ABBA stand comes in for me.
