Airhead tools..

[Bucephalus]

Just thought I’d share what I think is my bargain find at a recent Auto Jumble..A BMW tool kit in what appears to be the OE roll..

The tools are marked BMW - HEYCO - W Germany ..No idea what model or year, but will do for my R100Gs..

I paid £50 and have seen individual items at a tenner so I’m pleased..

I think it is for a airhead GS. It’s the same as mine which I always carry, no exhaust ring spanner supplied. Definitely a bargain at £50

Yep, it's the same as I had for my R100GS.

I’ve have a few of those, including the same green edged tool roll as in your picture. I’ve some grey and blue rolls plus a grey white ,, think most of mine are for early K series

IS there a line on the handle of the shock adjust spanner?

I think it is a K75 or K100 Tool roll

Defo airhead ( you even have a cuckoo spanner in there !! )

WTF is a 'cuckoo spanner'?

 

[Bubb]

Cuckoo spanner
A spanner of an incorrect type/make that does not fit in with the other spanners in the tool kit.

Look closely, and you can see a smaller spanner that doesn’t match. ( not a big thing in my tool kits as they are all just bits n pieces I put together)…..

Here’s a few I dug out of one of my drawers .
I have other rolls elsewhere, brown with red trimming, grey with green

I've got a couple somewhere.

You've inspired me to bung them on eBay

Mine did have the little shorty tyre levers which I no longer carry - can anyone claim to have successfully changed a tyre with them?

 

[Gelandestrasse]

Yes me - but needed 3 of them

Yes, but with a 2 foot length of scaffold tube as an extension bar

Is the top one suitable for a G/S ?

Looks to have the wheel wrench ?

The wheel wrench is the same for the K series and 1100/1150.
It has the K series spark plug tool with the plastic spacer, I think the K series plug is smaller.

I bought one of these several years ago to replace the bitsa one that came with my g/s. Only problem with it, is I can't get it to fit in the plastic tool pod under the saddle.
