Building Your Motorcycle Toolkit

While some motorcycle service tasks will always be best left to the professionals, there is a lot that can be done at home with the right know-how and parts. However, it is also important that you have the right tools for the job before you start. That is why Beach House Harley-Davidson® has created this guide to motorcycle maintenance tools. 

Assessing Your Ability

If a repair requires a tool that you do not know how to use, it is safe to say that the repair is beyond your ability. Take some time to get familiar with your tools from the comfort of your garage. A tool that you do not know how to use has no place in your toolkit. 

Picking the Tools

Even if you know how to use a tool, that does not always mean you should pack it. If you are transporting your motorcycle via truck, you can afford to be less selective, but if you are just riding your motorcycle you should do what you can to conserve space. This includes coordinating with others to share tools if you are riding in a group.
