- I figured it's time for a storytime, toolbox tour. I wanted to show the tools I used as a Harley Davidson mechanic, which were worth buying from Snap On and Matco (the only tool trucks that came to the shop) and what was worth buying from Harbor Freight. This video is more on the longer side, but I just figured I'd show each and every drawer.
Anyways, thanks for watching the video, thank you for the video suggestions y'all give time to time, comment if you have any videos you'd like to see in the future. Y'all stay positive and safe out there :)

I'm glad to see a real working toolbox. So many seem too organized as if they planed for a photoshoot.
Great set up 💯 good mix of tools you have, thanks for sharing
thanks man 😊😊
Thank you for the great tour!! wish I had some of those beautiful tools! Myself, I've learned to wrench on my Triumph, after finding dealership service lacking, I have basic metric tools, and I use my Hanes manual along with TH-cam tutorials. So far Ive done coolant change/flush, air filter replacement ( now DNS), oil changes, brake pads, brake fluid bleeding, tire changes, static balancing, chain maintenance, and chain removal and replacement, (never broke a chain but now I know how). And for higher handlebars I needed to replace both cables to extended version, that meant removal of gas tank. So basically I've done everything except inside the engine. I was actually going to do the valve clearance check, but I chickened out because I don't have my own garage and it was looking a bit intimidating to start that and finding Ive done something wrong. So I hired a motorcycle mechanic to do it. ($650) Other than that I feel confident that I know my bike pretty good ( over 40,000 Km) and know its in top shape. I am envious of your cool shop! I've heard that Snap On are some of the best tools money can buy! Thanks again for the tour! 🙂🙂🙂
you know a lot more than the average rider does, that's awesome!!! manuals and youtube are a great resources to use from home to get you far! with time collections grow, mine didn't grow over night, so in due time yours will grow too 😊😊😊 thanks for checkin out the video 🤗🤗
Great video! You say not organized, but it is more organized than the toolboxes of some "Master Mechanics" I have seen. LOL But if you saw mine, you would shake your head. I worked as a nurse in my previous life, sometimes in the OR, so I am sure you can just imagine. LOL Keep up the great work!
You surely walk the walk and wrench the wrenches... no BS confidence and knowledge meet well here :)
Thanks for sharing with us. Was interesting 🙂
The long T45 is great for the m8 softail passenger peg mounts or bagger quick detach hardware
Dasha you gotta look into VIM they have all the stubby bits and sockets in allen and torx that are perfect for those tight or hard to access spots. Just one snap on or matco socket cost as much as a whole set from vim. Also VIM is the OEM for matco's torx and allen bit sockets.
thanks for the tip man!
Nice toolbox I always used craftsman or cheaper stuff starting out and replaced it when it broke and took the cheaper tools home. Now after 30 years I 3 full sets pretty much. I am losing one box to my niece though she decided to become a diesel mechanic like me and I promised her my home box if she did in school. Good too more women in the trades these days.
thanks man, I am proud of it :) the collection does build with time but that is awesome that you're passing down one of your boxes. there is something special about toolboxes that are passed down. :)
Lowes use to sell those stainless tool boxes about 25 years ago
I wouldn't be surprised if that's where my dad got it from
Do you need special sockets to go with the rocker box (Lang) ratchet. Also, can you show a video technique wise how to torque rear rocker screws with/with out the dog bones!
so as of the near future, I doubt I'll get my hands on a rocket box that needs work, but the tools I shown in the video as all I use for rocket boxes. the lang ratchets do not come nor need additional sockets. But if you're curious, the dog bones, ( i only use them because of fitment and using my torque wrench with socket, it just won't fit under the frame backbone above the rocker boxes) but when attaching the dogbones to the torque wrench, the only thing to keep in mind is, the dogbone and torque wrench must be at 90 degree angle for an accurate torque measurement. so as long as you keep the dogbone at 90 degrees ( L shape) with the torque wrench, it'll make it easy and accurate way to get the right torque measurement.
@@MotoDasha I appreciate the message and wisdom. I need all the help I can get.
See you support 81.
Messy box, but still cool.
organized chaos. 😅
Slavik privet 🖖🏻🙂
What? No improv? Who needs a toolbox? Tools just lay everywhere, even if one has a box.
О, ты русская?!?
Родилась в США, говорю по-русски, но моя семья из Украины. :)

WOMEN AND TOOLS IS LIKE OIL AND WATER
you just say that bud because you more than likely havent been with a woman in over 4 years. so you just sh+t on every female around you see to make you feel better about being lonely. good day sir
F U buddy. My Wife at the time turned her wrenches on a 1995 XLH1200 Trev Deely Canadian Edition, one of 1400 made. She was the most careful, never scratched or broke anything.
What?
?
dammit a woman with tools and tattoos that works on harleys your my kind of woman you can come work on my harley anytime its a 1985 fxwg evo 4 speed kick and elec with belt drive 😍btw harbor freight has life time warranty on tools
🥹😊🥰 ( I am just to lazy to drive to harbor freight, at the time I worked in my last dealer, that store was over 30 minutes away, so on my days off that was the last thing I wanted to do just to replace tools. It was just more convenient to wait a week for the snappie to arrive😅)
