Guys,
I'm looking for some advice on the ideal toolkit I should be carrying on the LC RT. My previous bike was a Multistrada and I had the kit nicely sorted. Now I seem to need all these funny torx keys and stuff like that. I don't want to go to the expense of a Cruz kit - I've got most of the bits already - just looking for tips on the RT specific things you think I should be carrying...

Ideal Toolkit?

Hi David.
'DaygloDavid' provided some good info on this subject. Read it in the Forums `Tools section' For the later models, Rtman10 is the `font of all knowledge'

Re: Ideal Toolkit?
Many many years ago when I got my first 1150RT it came with the bits under the seat just like the present RTs. I made a fuss and got a supplementary tool kit as BMW call it for free. Its now been used on a total of 8 bikes and seems to have all the necessary bits to keep you going. I'm not sure if its still available but its part no was, 71 60 7 691 294. If you look in Real OEM at a 2007 RT Sec 77 there is a picture of all the tools in the bag.
