What BSF & BSW Tools are needed?

[roy the mechanic]

I assume you have a local airfeild, go talk to the mechanics , the original tool kit stuff is ok for investors not very good for the "serious wrench" Montgomery ward may be useful if they are still in buisness. good hunting, (it's half of the fun) Roy.

Hi
steve hamel in the states stocks neil videan k1 spanners and speacil spanners for doing up the wheel axle nuts, these have to be thin spanners to fit between the fork legs and the brake back plates.Why do you need them, why to get the anti torqe pins into their housing on thefork blades,and then tighten up the wheel nuts (E80) without removing the wheel.

A lot of my larger BSF/BSW spanners are Gedore. Superb tools but it was hard to find the smaller sizes here in Australia. They will last as long as the Vincent does without doubt.

Goede Dag JC,
Het gaat goed met mij , ik hoop ook met jouw! Ok that was my best Dutch.. Dank je for the offer to supply me mit tools, but I found a local supplier in New York for Witworth tools as well as fasteners... I used to get to speak Dutch every week at work but now I only get a chance once in a while.. Thanks again

Why settle for anything other than English.

Well that is the joy of it, the yanks are selling Brit tools and I don't have to pay the royal mail a ton of cash to get them here.... Plus delivery will be only one day....Much thanks for the pointer though....

Cheers,
Duc
