Well I am all excited, flying to brisbane this sunday after nightshift to pick up the new bike and I can't wait. Just got my jacket and boots back from getting fixed. It's been ten years since I've done a road trip and the first on a harley. Will be back in hobart for work on friday. Stopping at Gosford and The rock to get on the piss with blokes I don't see very often any more.

The current owner has serviced and put new tyres on the bike for me, even fitted the screen for the first time ever. He seems like a great bloke, this is his 6th harley and is just to old to ride anymore.

What specic tools should I take, eg what size spanners and allen keys. Not that i expect to brake down.
