I got a good surprise today. I received my Motorcycle Owner’s Manual (MOM) and the service manual as expected. I took a minute to flip through the MOM and saw that there was a section called Tool Kit. Well, wouldn’t you know it… There was a tool kit hidden on the bike!
There was a rectangular section kind of below and behind the battery down in the sub-frame. I had seen it before just figured it was part of the battery section where the fuses and other electronics came together. After seeing it in the MOM, I saw there there was a little pull knob that I hadn’t see before because it was behind the frame. I pulled on it and a little door popped off and I could see a small bag filling the compartment. I pulled the bag out and there was a full tool kit! There was the spanner that I was needing to adjust the rear shock pre-load, and all sorts of other stuff like hex wrenches, pliers, screwdrivers, metric wrenches, and a spark plug wrench. Jackpot. Honda quit putting full tool kits in their bikes in 2006 so I wasn’t even thinking about finding a whole kit in the Suzuki either.
Now to see if I can get it all crammed back into that little storage compartment!
