I would like to start a TOOL / LOAN program with fellow members.
Seems that as a group we might just be able to save some coin by sharring tools as needed.

I have a bearing puller. I'll get back to you as to the sizes metric. Worked great for my wheel bearings. Sorry Harley Dudes. metric only LOL

Will have a chain press tool.

If anybody needs such a tool I can ship at your cost both ways.
Or maybe we can figure something out in order to help one and another out.
There may be some folks that travel from area to area that may come in handy as well.

By the way if anybody has a XR650R swing arm nut tool let me know. It is two tools with 4 prongs on each one.

Also have a Porsche ring compression tool that I'm sure will work with all moto piston sizes. Designed to slip jug over piston w/rings.
The ring compressor set is sized 73mm-111mm with six pieces. It is a Porsche set but works well for any jugg over ring slides.

Also have a hone for cross hatching cyclinder.
Hone is 2'' to 7"" but with care will work for slightly smaller than 2". Been used only 4 times for my westy vw. 4 cyliders.

There is no question that this will work a lot easier for those that live close by each other.

The way I see it if I pay up to $25 to ship a tool two ways it will save me a grundle if I am only going to use this tool once in 2-5 years and said tool cost a couple hundred bucks.
But time frame is a different story altogether pending the tool in ? And tool.

Any thoughts on such a Idea??????????? PROS/CONS.

EXample: Compression test tool will not ship well for long/con
Example : some tools are machine only./con
Example: everbody should own their own clutch tool.


Example: Some fork seal tools are easy to ship/deliver and can come in handy for most all sometime or another.
Example: A tap and thread tool is easy to ship/deliver and are not cheap. pr
example: Good sized tire irons are a great thing to have when dealing with a new stiff tire but shipping may not be worth it.
