Thanks in advance.

That's all I got with my Canadian model too, but the dealer ordered all the missing items and I got them free of charge.

Thanks for the great list. I was just about to post a thread complaining about the under-seat stock tools (no shock spanner wrench? c'mon Honda...) but this list will make shoring up my toolbox easy and relatively painless.

RE: Tools you'll need
I guess I need a torque wrench for the fork pinch bolts in order to install my new Superbrace. I do not own a torque wrench. Recommendations for brand, style, etc.? Anyone?

Dont really need a torque wrench Sea, just snug them up, rotating as you tighten so you don't bind anything.

I agree with the ferret, but if you just want one, and who could blame you, I've had great luck with this inexpensive click torque wrench in light duty use on my CB for over three years now.

All men should own a torque wrench, Harbor Freight if going low cost air Craftsman are two options. Also Lowes or Home Depot have options

A good torque wrench is buy once cry once. You will then end up using it all the time. Some things MUST be torqued. Some, not so much.

If you come to a fork in the road, take it!

I love the 'click' it makes when you hit the spot.

Yes! The click is the thing! No more craning your neck to read a dial indicator. My cheap0 new clicker works as well (is as accurate as) as my trusty old Craftsman dial indicator torque wrench, too.
