Not many Tenere owners are going to agree with you there.

In my opinion, forget it. make your own up. In the OE kit, the tools are pretty flimsy, the plug spanner doesn't go over the plug (and if you do manage. you can't turn it!) it doesn't even have a socket for removing either wheel, or tightening the mirror mounts.

Best put your own kit together. I'm about to head off north, just as soon as the missus finishes drying here hair (4 days on the bike in the Highlands - bliss), but I'll tell you the composition of my own toolkit when I get back. Others will be able to tell you what you need in the meantime, it really isn't very much at all.

Of course, having an OE toolkit, for completion, is always good when re-selling the bike.
