Airhead Workshop Tools

[nicholsonj2252]

I went to have a look at an R80R in Nottingham today but unfortunately the bike was in poor condition and the aged owner valued it significantly higher than I would pay . However it was not a wasted trip as 20 years ago he had bought a workshop tool board from Pidcock's with airhead tooling on it which he wanted rid off . I dulely paid his asking price and brought it home . I've only unpacked two of the three plastic storage boxes the tools are in and before anyone chimes up yes I do not have them all in the right places as until I get everything unpacked and the board mounted on the wall in the garage I'm not going to sort it properly as there were also some other additional tools included that the mechanics must have had customised/added

Wow…. What a great find.
I don’t know how much you paid, but however much it was it was worth it.

I would have Definately bought it had i seen it!

You do know that you’re going to be spending all your time ow searching for the missing tools so you can complete the set

They look fabulous John - If only I knew how to use them!!
1st dibs if you ever get a usb port fitting into your brain!! or will you be running mechanics' training sessions? could be an earner that.

I'm not sure there are any missing , as I said I have another full box of tools still to unpack ......

I'd have snapped that up and I haven't even owned an airhead for 20 years

Even the board on it's own would have been brilliant for a wall ,the fact all the tools are on it is a huge huge bonus ,well done you. I assume you were cheeky enquire to enquire had he any more stuff for sale

I did and he included 4 medium boxes of miscellaneous airhead parts , I've had a quick scan and it has some useful parts in it ;-)

I spotted an oil filter cup and a bearing puller but that’s it from me I’m afraid

Nice find.
