| Re: tool kit? Probably standard would be my guess. The '06 ST1300 comes with a tool kit that contains an allen wrench and a piece of foam! |

| Re: tool kit? My 954 has quite a bit. Its got a screw driver, two spanners, a big socket for something (mini bar), a fuse remover, allen keys and probably some other things too. Ive also got a mini bicycle tool kit (very small - just incase), my disklock and optimate lead tucked under the rear seat... |

| Re: tool kit? Hi from Canada.
I just bought an Aero, no toolkit or any sort of a manual, only instructions on how to attach the bags. I was told the manual was in one of the bags but no such luck. I will call the dealer tomorrow. I really like the bike though, got a whole 90 kms on it so far.

| Re: tool kit? Lol. My '07 919 came with the lock cable (inside a bubble wrap bag!) and an allen key (also in a (separate) bubble wrap bag), but inside the little tool bag. I didn't even look in it, since with all the bubble wrap it LOOKED like a full tool kit... three days later, what a let down. |

| Re: tool kit? My 2004 919 came with 2 box end spanners, 2 double headed spanners, one allen wrench, one spark plug socket, a pair of pliers (worst pliers ever, they blow goats), rear suspension adjuster wrench, one handle for previous wrench, one handy 2 into 1 screw driver (phillips one end, flat-head the other), a helmet strap, and finally one 8mm open ended spanner. 13 pieces total and a major PITA to try to jam it all into the tiny little purple bag they give you. |

Oh, and being able to adjust the front and rear suspension would be nice.  All of this can be done for about 15 bucks, so I can see why they skimped. 15 bucks times 10,000 units... well. Just a little niggle is all. Ride safe. |

| Re: tool kit? You know...when I think about it, my cars never came with a tool kit, only a jack. Maybe Honda has decided to do what is standard for the Civic. |

| Re: tool kit? So where is the stand then?
The truth is, most people never used it. So rather than charge for something that most don't use, why not just remove it? It also helped the wet weight of the '08 RR. |
