    Does anyone know where I can get a complete list of needed tools (socket/wrench sizes) etc?

    The factory manual provides a tool list for each chapter but they don't get as specific as size.

    BTW make sure its metric not standard....
    I got a kit with everything from 6mm-25mm and seems to cover just about everything on the bike so far.

    Get a 6mm allen socket for adjusting the chain.

    Most used sockets/wrenches are 8,10,12,14mm, plus a 17mm socket for the wheel lugs.

    You will also need a hammer, to bust stuff up when things don't go right.

    duck tape, bailin wire, jb weld, bfh (aka hammer) and pliers is all u need
    just kidding all you reall need is a set of sockets 6-19 and a 22(i think fore the hub bolts?) a set of wrenches 8-19, a few GOOD screwdrivers (good so you dont strip out screws) torq wrench, and some other things that i may have forgot. oh ya and a 6 mm allen socket is really healpful for tightning the chain and i have found the easest way to change the spark plug is to use the tool out of the factory tool kit.
    I dont have a wheeler but i work on all my friends. I have a dirt bike but all i do is get hurt on it. People say i should go to 4 wheels but whenever i ride one i'm allways on 2

    You only need the hammer for doing precision work, like if you want custom lobes on your cam :devil

    What are you going to do?? Do like me and tear it completely down. When we put it back together the one with the most pieces left over wins
