I'm Chad I present motorcycles in Wilmington, North Carolina on behalf of expertvillage.com I'm here to show you some of my maintenance on our bike before you go out for a ride. Now we are going to talk about some of the tools that we use today that you would need to check the maintenance on your bike. Most of your stuff is going to be visually or hands on you can check it hands on. Some of the things first is a flash light you would need this to check your brakes, your oil level stuff like that. Second thing would be a tape measure the tape measure you use it to check your chain. The next thing you would probably need is a socket or a ratchet that would be to check some of the bolts and make sure they are not loose. The next thing would be a tire pressure gage. This here would be to check air pressure in your tires and another good thing to have is a good set of Allen wrenches. These are T handles which you can use these or the socket ones it doesn't matter. Most of these tools you can find at any auto part store or you might have them around your house in the garage. The bike also comes equip with tools in the back of the bike which you can use them as well.
