Honda Motorcycle Tools
A small, portable tool kit is an essential part of being a motorcycle owner. You can fix simple issues on your Honda motorcycle, such as switching out a bad spark plug or tightening a loose bolt--if you have the right tools. Check with the owners manual of your model Honda motorcycle for the exact specs of the tools needed to work on it.
Spark Plug Socket
If you own a motorcycle, chances are good that you will need to change out your spark plugs often. If this happens when you are out in the middle of a ride, you will need to change them on the road. Always carry extra spark plugs and a spark plug socket, a small wrench made especially for removing spark plugs. Make sure your spark plug socket is for a metric motor. Check your Honda motorcycle owners manual to see what type of spark plugs your engine requires.
Multi-Tool
As its name implies, a multi-tool is a compact tool that can perform a variety of functions. It can be a knife, a screwdriver or pliers to name a few. Several companies make multi-tools, but theyre universal, so choose the one that performs the most useful functions for you (see Resources).
Allen Wrench Set
An Allen wrench is also known as a "hex key." An Allen wrench set includes several sizes for various jobs. The hexagonal heads are used to drive the bolts and screws on your Honda motorcycle that have hexagonal sockets. Allen wrenches are light and small so they can be carried along with you on your motorcycle.
