Title: 850T Tool Kit

This bag was in the box of misc stuff that came with the bike. Is this original? I think some of the tools are. Bag is shot so I'll try to find something similar.

Good call. Same shape.

Friend of mine is going to try to reproduce it with some left over shoe leather. I told him not to put a Swoosh on it.

it seems to me that the V7 Sport set is identical to the 850T set, no?

Yup that's the original bag - or what's left of it... :rolleyes: I am lucky enough to have mine still, including all the original tools! Any upholstery shop should be able to copy it easily.

Flat-blade screwdriver tip, used as the handle for the plug socket and to hold axles while tightening the axle nut.

Post by: Tom on August 29, 2016, 02:57:32 PM: :1: Bag is original. Looks like other ones that I have. The tools that I have oem suck. Only good for emergencies and sometimes not. BMW has way better tools for the time period.
