- The Wera tool kits aren't really made to be a motorcycle tool kit, BUT they pack small and flat to save space and fit perfect in your luggage or under the motorcycle seat. These are also great to have along on motorcycle camping trips.
Keep an eye out for a deals of the week and product demo videos!

The Wera Check Plus has been my go to motorcycle travel kit for a long time. The quality is amazing.
I love the WERA tools, I have the Mini, and it is usually the only rachet set I use working on my dirt bikes BECAUSE it is so tiny, all the bits and most useful sockets are in the tiny plastic case. The 5 degree throw required to advance the socket/bit is a BOON to working in carbs, hose clamps, and all manner of things without performing more complete disassembly. With the torque capability (I think 80 ft lbs), I can apply a little pipe and crank all I ever want to while loosening things on dirty dirt bikes, and it's not easy to over torque most things if working trailside. I can usually fit all or nearly all the tools I need on my Beta 200 and 300rr under the seat.
I carry an imperial one on my 1947 WL, best tool set ever...
Thanks for showing us those cool little tool sets Ben!
They look pretty sweet!
Great tools. I’ve had the Wera 3/8” kit on my bike for years. Along with a toll roll with wrenches, pliers, multimeter, etc…. Very compact and doesn’t take up too much space in the pannier. I’d also point out that any other bits you need can be purchased separately. It’s worth taking the time to use these with your normal bike maintenance so that you’re confident that you have the exact sizes you need.
That's a really good point. We should start stocking the individual bits that riders need to add to these kits. I always encourage people to build their own kits for their bikes so they know they have what they need.
very nice kit, i run the 1/4 inch set for emergencies added the imperial strip of sockets to the metric set. just about all fits in. expensive habit wera… along with festool. i saw the self setting spanner set that looks awesome. cheers
Very nice tool check plus this could be great for my work 👍
hello, thanks for the review, do you think I should continue with the check plus imperial or automotive model to use it both at home and in the car?
Yup. Got the Tool Check Plus. And it's a perfect motorcycle kit.
Great video, wera Great quality
I have the same 3/8ths kit and the pozi drive will never see the light of day as an american we don't generally use them anywhere also have the 3/8ths metal switching ratchet in imperial (sae) love my wera tools as they match my makita power tools as well.. lol cheers
The tool kits look great!
They are fantastic! thanks for watching!
I've been looking at these and adding their 4 pc spanner kit. Seems like that would do most any job on the trail with my KTM 500EXCF. However, how heavy are these tools? Space saving is important for sure...but so is the weight, especially off-road.
The tool check plus metric kit comes in at just over 1 pound (18.5 oz)
I have some Wera tools. I want to buy more, even if I don't need them. I feel better just owning such awesomeness.
Wera should make some tool rolls specific to different brands of bikes, with half of the space left empty so we could customize our toolkits. These general purpose tool kits have many tools not needed for a specific bike but would be good to add to a motorcycle specific tool roll if supporting a variety of bikes on an expedition.
I'm really surprised they haven't already.
Very kool kits
Dude . Now I know the wrench ah I mean ratchet swivel screw wrench tool . Swanky Cat uses one and I have been really wanting that tool . I will get the big one and little one . Thanks !
Great quality tools! I've been using them for years! Hope to get the bigger sets back in stock in a week or so.

Right on .
Really like wera
Wera makes great tools!
We love em!
Awesome tools and cool sticker.
Thanks!
Nice I like it 😊
They are awesome little tool kits.
JIS-Heads would bei nice .
Yep several of our customers use these kits and just take out the bits they don't use and exchange with bits they do need. Since this is more of an industrial tool kit being used for motorcycles it can use a little customization. Of course no moto tool kit sold really checks every box for every rider. Always best to build the kit that works best for you.
They messed up by not tossing in some open end wrenches. 8, 10mm are crucial
This set isnt specifically made for motorcycles. Honestly it's a pretty aweful motorcycle tool kit if this is all you carried. In my opinion your toolkit should be well thought out and have most of the tools that you need to disassemble most anything on the motorcycle. One way to learn what tools you need is to try and do basic maintenance tasks with your toolkit and you'll quickly find out what works and what doesnt. Would be a shame to find out your toolkit sucks when you're stranded in the middle of nowhere with some fixable problem and your tools let you down.
Is the 5.5mm socket a bit of a strange inclusion? Can’t say I’ve ever seen a 5.5mm nut or bolt head
Surprisingly enough, I've used the 5.5mm a lot over the years as an industrial maintenance tech, which is how I originally came to learn about Wera. Outside of manufacturing and production equipment, I have not seen the 5.5mm used, but I'm sure they are out there.
AFAIK 5,5 mm is the head size of an M3 screw. So if one regularly comes across „Mxx“ nuts and bolts, this might be handy.
i love the screwed of wera and others type i don't use
tool-check plus the ratchet is too small and no extension. Wera zyklop is nicer but too bulky. Go with a £20 bahco kit perfect size
Big $$$
JIS bits?
Unfortunately not in these kits. Wera does make them though.
Almost 200 USD for Zyklop 1/4" Drive Metric Set and no flat heads....ok)))
The 1/4 Zyklop kit that he reviews is only $89 online.
way too SMALL ~ cool but SMALL . I have the first set
These packaged tool kits aren't any good. Like where's the pliers? I highly recommend you spend the money on an individualized motorcycle kit and only carry the sockets you need.
Actually these tools are high quality and its a given we tell everyone that these are obviously not a do it all kit. This is just 1 tool to add to an entire tool kit. Nobody is changing a tube with just these kits. Again we tell everyone to build their kit to fit them, these kits are just options for those who like high quality ratchets, sockets, and bits
I think it is overpriced.
For what the average rider needs, probably so. For someone wanting reliable high quality tools, you pay for that extra fit and finish, plus these are designed for industrial maintenance. Be sure to check out the SBVTOOLS we sell as well. Again, high quality tool kits made for motorcycles.
