Does it exist? Lockable? Is it the same as the ULY? Thanks. | ||

There's space under the Ss' seat - nowhere near the space of the Uly but enough to hold the toolkit. | ||

That toolkit is a bit of a joke, by the way. Let's just say that with the toolkit in place, there is enough room to roll up your insurance card and stuff that in there too... | ||

That's more than my current Sporty has. Does it lock? | ||
| Towjam |
It's not a separate storage compartment but is just space under the seat. So assuming your seat is locked, the storage space is secured. | ||

That toolkit is a bit of a joke, It might not be a complete toolkit but it is head and shoulders above what many other manufacturers are now including. (At least it includes a spanner wrench for example.) | ||

My buddy's brand new ST1300 came with a tool pouch. In it was a single torx key. Nothing else. Interesting considering I counted 3 or 4 different sized fasteners that hold on the body panels, so you coudln't even get all the plastc off on the side of the road if you needed to get to something. I'd say we got it pretty good. | ||

Anyone have any pix... Can you fit the Buell underseat organizer in there? | ||

Xl1200r: Actually you can get the side panels (the ones that cover the battery and fuses) off with just that "allen" wrench. Now it's REAL fun pulling off the fairing! Push pins (plastic rivets 3 sizes) and your assorted allen bolts and 8mm bolts. Yes, been there done that, my ST1300 has 80,000 miles in 3 years. With 50+ farkles the fairing has been off a few times. Neil S. | ||

Cool-I am strongly considering a black XB12Ss this spring and little stupid things like this actually are a selling point. | ||

Guess I'm spoiled. I can practically rebuild my bike on the side of the road with the high quality tools that came with my K1200LT. The only other "toolkit" experience I've had with motorcycles are the "tools" that came with my earlier (1980's) Yamahas. I think they were actually molded from some kind of grey cheese... they certainly weren't made of any kind of metal worth being called metal! | ||

Hey I had two 1980s Yamaha and they both had those crazy cheesy grey tools. But if you could actually figure out how to connect them together you were suppose to be able to remove all the spark plugs (87 Yamaha fazer 700 inline 4, hahaha) But I will say that I was able to adjust the chain on the side of the road, and that included breaking loose the axle bolt and having two 12mm wrenches to break loose the jam nut. So it did work for that. But I could never figure out that sparkplug socket setup. |
