Question about tools(preview pics)

I know that Roketa gets Shineray parts, since both the recent purchases are tagged Shineray.

Looking at the pictures the tank looks to be the same as mine. I wonder if that is an error.

Which bike? The Komoto or the Shineray?

[katoranger]

Komoto or Hibird 250

Tank looks small.

I can get the tank seporatly, it is about $150 for the tank and then shipping from China if you're interested.

[katoranger]

Thanks, but that is too much for me to spend. Shipping would be killer too.

I do have a suzuki tank that I have been working with.

Should I have received a tool kit and owners manual with my new bike? I want to check my spokes and do not have a suitable tool which I assume would have been included in the tool kit.

lifanrider,
yes you should have a tool kit in a little black bag under the seat. on mine there was a rubber strap with 2 metal ends that hooked onto a black bracket. i would take a picture to show you but i got rid of all that. maybe someone else will. i hope this helps.

[Lifanrider]

why did you get rid of it pumpkin?

i don't know if there is room under my seat.

[pumpkin]

the tools where for the most part junk and my craftsman tools are to big to fit in the little bag. then later on i repositioned my starter relay were the tool bag was.

[Lifanrider]

man...the AL guys are gonna send me the manual and the tool kit via the mail!

[katoranger]

I don't think a spoke wrench is included. You can buy one a dirt bike shop for a few bucks and it will fit in the tool kit.

Pumpkin is right about the tools being too cheap to use.

I carry some alternatives in the trunk.

Actually, they gave me a call and I was able to ride over (despite the 10F windchill) and pick up the toolkit. you're right, there was no spoke tool. what size is it? can I use a crescent wrench or what? The tools don't seem super cheap (except the plyers) but then...i am not much of an expert on tools. They are small though. I was just looking for some that were compact enough to fit right under my seat in case of emergencies. all in all, it went well.

Hey Kato..i used to live in atlanta for a year and a half. lived in marietta and commuted every morning and night all the way to winder, ga. then moved to lawrenceville. I did replacement window installations. I dare you to take your bike out on 285! 8O
