Partzilla also shows the allen key as part of the set but I don't think I had one on my Z1B that I bought back in '75.

I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

I have a few things lying around on a shelf. I'll check later today and post some pics. I have no problem taking the original tools out of the 750 as that isn't a "proper" restoration. Postage from Germany isn't too bad.

Calum,

I'd be very grateful if you would check - I'm not having any luck finding these so far.

Found some stuff. The screwdriver handle is pretty much new (got it from CMS a few years ago). Not sure about the allen key, came with an old Z toolkit but no idea if it's original. Pliers from a 750 LTD. I also have a feeler gauge from the 750 somewhere, but it doesn't have the extra bit of wire on it (which I assume is to check plug gaps), so it's probably not original.

Calum,

Thank you,

How much do you want for the tools ?

The screwdriver handle and Allen key look fine, pliers would do until I can find ones with the 'rivermark' logo.

Thanks for the link to the feeler gauge - I've tried to order but can't get the website to accept United Kingdom or Great Britain (doesn't appear in the dropdown list)

Hi Haydn,
get my email address from Wookie and we can sort out price, shipping etc. I have another set of pliers, I'll see what logo they have on them. I think Brexit killed UK shipping for most of the German websites.

Wookie,

Calum has some tools available and suggested that I get his email address from you (see his post) so that we can sort a deal, can you help please ?

Thanks to Calum I now have the feeler gauge - It's a good reproduction but chances of finding the original are close to zero.

The screwdriver handle and allen wrench I can get new alternatives so no issue there.

The pliers with 'rivermark' logo are more difficult but hopefully I'll come across them on Ebay at some point.
