    What should be in a 600 toolkit?

    Hi there,

    I have recently bought a '96 TA off Cazrally

    As I have yet to pass my test I'm doing some cosmetic restoration and I was wondering what would have lived in the toolbox.

    Or does anyone have any recommendations for a useful onboard survival kit to go in there?

    Cheers

    Giles

    i've probably got a copy of the tool kit list on the puter at home, i'll look it out this evening & post it if no one else has enlightened you by then.

    If you put your VIN (chassis number) into this page ZSF, then it will bring up all the relevant parts fiches and part numbers (including the tool kit) for your bike.

    It's not a case of whether we can fix it or not - it's more a case of how fixed would you like it?

    Hey, that's fantastic. How do they all fit in the pencil case under the seat?

    I'm going to see if I can create a (modern) kit from cheap (ebay) finds, there's currently an old toothbrush and an oily rag in there...

    It is fiddly getting them all in. I put the bag in first then the tools and wiggle them around.
