This headlamp has become a tool I don’t work without. If you have old eyes like mine you will especially appreciate it. I tried shop lights, drop lights and just could not get enough light where I needed it. Hands free with quick adjustment and excellent for finding carb mounting bolts and peering into those nooks and crannies. This high-power headlamp does the job at half power for around $20.00. Great for general inspections and if you drive at night it could fill in as a headlight if needed and well worth taking in the kit on the road. Uses a lithium battery and lasts several hours but best to have two batteries and a charger.

One example. https://www.amazon.com/SLONIK-Lumen-...519393&sr=8-33 This one is a bit more expensive, but I use it at work and swear by it. Not bulky feeling and the amount of light and the spread makes working on things in the dark almost a pleasure. It has also proven to be quite durable. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078XT3WVX...NrPXRydWU&th=1

My tool box. Almost everything you’d need to Mod, repair, replace, or even purchase a China bike.

Cordless, Electric Ratchet
Bought right before my TBR7 shipped. It made disassembling the crate and assembling the bike a breeze. Wish I had purchased one years ago...

Seems to be little more discussion about bolts and threads repair on the forum these days. Months ago I saw guy say when he purchased his China bike he also purchased a cheap Tap and Die set from Harbor Freight. Good advise I don't forget. Put it on my list and months later the need finally got me to purchase it. Good to have and sometimes absolutely necessary. The threads on it are "inexpensive" so sometimes I will spend the money and buy a more precisely machined tap if it is something important. If you know nothing about them, they are not that hard to use. For years I would buy a tap and use a crescent wrench. I think this one $15.
