not bad but you forgot beer. I find it almost impossible to get most bike repairs done without at least two or eleven beers XD
Great tip on the T handle. Having said that, I totally disagree on the most important tool. All this time, it has been the corkscrew the most important one!
Hey William . Thanks for all the time invested by you on VLOGs. Got my Africa Twin three days ago went for a small ride and I loved it
Congratulations... I am sure that you will love it!!
Love to hear what your carried for punctures e.g. levers, patches etc.
30 seconds into the first video I’ve ever seen of yours.... I think to myself “I like this dudes style”. Subscribed!
Duct tape, electrical tape and 550 cord (parachute cord). I seen someone already said zip ties too
I'm doing my prep for my Alaska trip this summer... the tool phase is definitely a consideration.... good solid reasoning. Thanks for posting.
Spark plug socket plug for European AT is 14mm (instead of 18mm), and the SW Motech skid plate bolt in 13mm (instead of 15mm).
T-handle. Never would have thought. Good info. Thanks! 🍺
Thanks William. Aces. I have added the same tools to my Africa Twin toolkit.
Excellent video! Not a criticism, just a small suggestion: I recommend a JIS screwdriver (Japanese Industrial Standard) in place of Phillips. Reason being, many/most of the cross-shaped fasteners on Japanese bikes are actually JIS. They look the same but they're subtly different. If you can see a little dot/circle punched into the top of the screw, it's JIS. The proper JIS screwdriver will fit better and be less likely to cam-out and bork your screws. It will also work just fine on regular Phillips screws, so no need to carry both. I only learned of this distinction a couple of years ago, so figured others might not know either.
Dunno if these also count as tools, but I also like to bring:
- Zip ties (plastic + metal for hot parts)
- Small can of silicone lube (good to apply anywhere, safe on rubber, plastics, etc... tire change essential imo)
- Duct tape
- Electrical tape
- Tire spoon/bead breaker (I have the Motion Pro bead pro)
- Small rubber mallet
- JB weld, plastic weld
- Loctite, red & blue
Some other stuff too, most of these items + pretty much everything in this video pack into a small Pelican case 1170 box which sits behind my left pannier rack on my AT fastened using two lash straps.
Well done. I carry a telescopic magnetic pick up tool. All those tools are useless if you can't find the nut, bolt, screw or washer you're trying to work on because it's in a small cavity or fallen into mud, dust or water.
Great advice. This is NOT criticizing you. I just think you made one part of the video up. Yes EVERYONE knows that the 10mm socket is impossible to find when you need it. You really didn't have one you just said you did..... LOL Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience with us.
Thank you I've been traveling some of my 2016 Africa twin it's just like yours I watched all your blogs
Great channel William.......I am so bloody jealous of your adventure(s). One tool I always carry and have used many times is a set of Allen keys.
How are there always about 5 people who click dislike on your videos? its like they are stalking you. Love the videos, they are informative and make me chuckle at least once per video. Keep up the good work!
Yeah, I noticed that. I assume that it is the same 5 or so people everytime. They keep watching, hoping I get better. Or they are consistenly having a bad day. I assume that they dislike other things than me...
must be GS owners
Thanks for sharing and the feedback on tools and how the Africa Twin performed. Totally enjoyed the entire trip and look forward to future vids. Thanks again!!
I like your Kit. KISS “Keep It Simple Stupid”. You have all the tools you need and need all the tools you have. I like the idea of getting rid of the socket and extension...I have the T-handle also in my kit. Food for thought.
Get a Wera Zyklops kit, a fraction of the size and weight of these, German Quality, all the torx and socket heads you need bar 1-2, which can be bought separately....much better than a T handle. A roll of silicon magic tape to seal hoses etc. Small roll of wire. Zip ties. 5ml bottle of Loctite. Blade from a Stanley utility knife. Small (very small) LED flashlight. 4” or 6” adjustable wrench (Bahco). All of these fit into Kriega’s excellent tool roll with room for a few more if you feel like it. Would be half the weight and size of those (unnecessary) ring/Open ended spanners.
JIS head driver (Japanese Industrial Standard) instead of the Phillips. Might be one in your stock kit that came on bike.
I'd toss that spark plug socket, to get to the plugs you need to disassemble the whole bike. Definitely not a trail-side job.
Yet another good helpful video; thanks for taking the time to share them all. Cheers Potski
I'll be throwing a t-handle in my kit! Good thinking. No tire stuff?
Hi Willi, welcome home. Really enjoyed your publications to date. Thanks. On one of your videos during your trip in S.A. I think.... you mentioned that a T handle was not enough particularly for removing the wheel nuts, so you said you must have a socket ratchet...then you said on this video, that you would jettison the socket ratchet...please clarify. Also No tire irons?? and interested to see where and what you carried your tool kit in. ....Cool Man Cheers
The only thing I would add is do all the prep work on your bike with the tools you intend to bring so you know if you have all the bases covered
On point, thanks for sharing honest/factual video.
Nice, good to stay positive. Like your comment about tools all over the world. Thanks
Alright alright alright...good tool vid.! Now am I the only long term follower here who is still waiting on the Klim gear review? Been waiting patiently since South Africa when the jacket mysteriously changed...on reflection I see it started grey, then black, then Olive/Brown in mid to South Africa...so what's the back story there? Full spread detailed review on Klim, still holding my breath...
Well said !! Good info , travel light best way to travel if you can buy anything on tour . Hi from Bonnie Scotland.
Good stuff. Like others, I'm assuming tyre items are a separate video or just not addresses here? For me I started carrying a small chain break, Which I have used multiple times on multi-month rides. Which means carrying chisel for the head of the rivet. Rocks work as hammers. :-). I am curious how much time was spent off road in remote areas? My experience dictates different tool kits if I am on roads or remote more often.
Where did you get that 22-27 closed box wrench?
Hello William - thanks for another great distilled info video. Have you already made, or would you make a video on paperwork that's necessary for border crossings/entrance as you cross different borders around the world? Thanks!
What about the bottle opener ?? ...lol you are right with those tools , thanks . Gus
Thanks William, out of the tools you took, did you actually use every single one? Like the stop motion at the end. Cheers
Where did You packed it?
Great channel, ignore the negativity. I look forward to all your posts.
thank you Willy , what parts you will recommend taking in a long trip, I have a few extra screws, plastic clips, rubber grommets etc , there is always one that slips and fall inside or rolls and hide on you LOL I also have a collapsible t-handle that is handy and off course tie-wraps
Good stuff! Thanks for talking through that. Why two tire pressure gauges?
I carry the same setup but I throw in zip ties. Simple is best!
zip ties... of course. More important than the motorbike (almost). I will cover them bad boys in my spares video... Thanks for watching!
Awesome! Was just putting a kit together for my trip to Atlantic Canada this summer. May I ask what you use to change your inner tube?
Love 3rd rule.
I have used vicegrips as a clutch lever once or twice...
JB Weld and a flux capacitor doohickey.
And tire irons, of course!
You forgot to mention the lighter and corkscrew. Wine and a good fire are important when fixing a flat or changing a plug.
tire recommendations for mountain dirt road? have you found a favorite?
Good stuff -- I would guess you had some other tire irons, rim guards, and a pump as well?
Great vid. How about a video on motorcycling with a drone. Which drone? How to pack? How to shoot?
Thanks William. What size of box tl fit these all. I ve seen box screwed on left panier rack: what mounting ? Did you get rid of Honda tool box when travelling ? Also what review of Klim jacket , is it worth the money ? And no bead breaker to remove flat tire ? How did you do ?
all that tolls do not fit in the small tolls box in the left side of the bike. What you put in this little case?
Picking one's nose with vice grips - interesting, maybe painful. Great video, good wise words.
Interesting! No adjustable spanner (crescent wrench)? Guess the vice-grips have you covered on multiple fronts but they're a bit nasty...
nice. simple. easy to follow. i like it.
Hey William, i stumbled on your Vlog 31 last night searching for Honda AT reviews and did not know it was part of a trip...needless to say I watched from 31 till the end 43, all on a Sunday evening finishing 12pm with work the next day...i could not stop! You sure have a talent to capture an audience and sense of adventure! I now am starting your vlog back from the beginning and i'm on #12. Good job buddy!
I do have a question where i noticed you have a Kawa 650 that you also previously traveled on...how do you rate the 650 vs 1000 regardless of make. The reason I ask is i am pretty interested in the 2018 Suzuki DL 650 XT but notice the Honda NC750, but not sure if the Honda would be cut out for a trip similar to this...even the 650 for that matter? My budget would probably not allow for a 1000 at this point, and the 750 Honda for what i hear is too soft and "Pretty" for what you seemed to have gone through?
What is your verdict regarding the engine size, seems the Suzuki has very nice bottom range torque?
Greetings from South Africa!
You are great , this will help a lot I mean a lot of world riders . Just use better tags for your videos to reach more audience . Very valuable piece of information
Do you worry about having too much weight in one box or the other? Do you split the weight of tools and try to keep it even?
Quality video and i totally agree with the no neg comments request. Well said
My son and I rode the Trans America Trail ocean to ocean 2016 on an XR 650L and an XR 600R
Do you have a break down of how much money you spend in each country and the total cost of the trip? If so, may we have a look at it? plz kind sir and thank you
On your tools
Do you use a little box or a flat leather pouch?
Hi Willie, Interested in knowing how you managed the insurance requirement for the South American countries? Please can you let me know as I am planning a trip to ride home, after shipping the bike south.??? Cheers
Do Hondas use Jis bits and not Phillips bits.
Not being Negative We call your Socket Wrench A Ratchet on the East coast It's all what part of the world /counter your from Also I see your point about the T -Handle good vid
Ye sir I would agree with all of that, fun stuff. I love your way of thinking. I normally carry way too much and then I wish I had something else as well.
Fun video my friend, thank you for sharing and have a blessed week.
Hi friend. Why you choice honda África? What you Think about BMW GS 1200? THANKS.
About the same set up as me....did you take a chain breaker. ..? Steve
Puncture repair kit and tyre levers?
Excellent. I was looking for an effective tool list for my AT since it came with NONE! I pack a little more heavy than that... where are your tire spoons?
Harleys Rule he has spoons. Watch the vid. bill changes his own rubber. Even I the bike shop parking lot.
Great vid dude! Very helpful
Very good video! But, obviously, the comment that you can use the “vice grips” to “pick your nose”, I would like to see a demonstration of this technique!
Nice watch.
When’s the next trip around, Billy?
Tire tools missing?
You get a thumbs up just for telling the haters to Foxtrot Oscar.
hello William.. great videos mate.. i hve a question ,,, hard or soft panniers??
Soft is better off-road less chance of twisting your leg if it gets pinched between an obstacle and the pannier. On-road I still prefer soft if someone hits me from behind a hard top box positioned right behind me might result in a back injury
Good video, would like to see all the bike stuff, you took with you, see comments below. Thanks
I likes. You are born adventurer and great Vlogging man.
Hello,
a combination pliers is a combination of water pump pliers and a side cutter, unfortunately, the combination pliers is not particularly good as a water pump pliers nor as a side cutter the thing is just crap! That's why I would always take side cutters and water pump pliers!
Regards from Berlin
what did u miss about not taking the klr
Im waiting for an episode about how you are recording and putting everything together :)
Nice. Thank you.
I'm thinking tie wraps and super glue
Hey! Thanks for that. Q. Does your helmet fit in the sw-motech tail box?
yessir. Perfectly.
I predict the fork seals will be the nemesis of the AT. Reports all over the world of failure every 15-20k. Seals r a pain in the ass to replace.
I like your videos but can you ride two people on the for long trips. Thanks
I’ve watched most of your vids. If you don’t know who does ?
If U get rid of the rachet and T handle the what good R the sockets and arn't the allen renches good to have but not much good without the rachet and T handle? I do like your videos tho and not knocking U but just wondering.
Ken Hunk was get rid of ratchet as the T handle works best for him
I thought he said he got rid of the T handle too
I guess I misunderstood the first time
You should see the box of crap i have to carry in my Landy for just in case. hahahaha
Great. Thanks for this video! :)
GAH! I was waiting for you to say what the tool was to the left of the lighter but you never did!
adamaj wine opener ;)
Thanks buddy! It was driving me crazy! lol
Wine Opener..another essential tool. i don’t have the patience for the Boot and Tree technique for opening wine bottles! ;p
Wizegrip is the mechanics 3. arm
:-) cool place glad that found it
Yes first!!!
You forgot about the most important tool....the guy on the bike😂.
Interesting
No, I'm not going to unfollow you...
hahahahaha.....
you seem like you just came home from afternoon ride not from around the world ride. Organizing the garage,buying lift kits geezz lol
When are you leaving for your next trip ???? 😜😜😜
A magnet
Was there a tool you wish you had?
a motorcycle lift and a tire machine.... not really
:) . Thanks for watching.
