:ohdang: I didn't realize it was messed up. I also forgot to post a link to the story behind the bike.

It's rotary powered.

If you're looking to walk in and pick something up, then yes.

I prefer Motion Pro for motorcycle tools as they seem to have well thought out designs.
I have a set of these for bead breaking: https://www.cyclegear.com/accessories/m ... ad-breaker
And these: https://www.cyclegear.com/accessories/m ... tire-irons

You'll be gravy with 3. I was a dumbass and only bought two. However, I squeaked by with two changing the tire on my R6. . Great spoons! I used the garage wall method to break the bead. Can't find the video or I'd share.

Bringing the Grom to the FAPPENNING

Too bad I never got around to installing all my new goodies
I got Ohlins front suspension and Galfer brakes sitting in the box.
