I would suggest foregoing the toolkit, and making your own. The OEM set was a bit low quality. You'd be better off assembling a kit of your own with real tools. As you're working on it, make a list of the things that you use, and slowly buy a piece at a time. Once you think you have a decent set, you can even create a pouch to store them in that fits in the toolbox. As for the kickstart, there's one on ebay right now with no bids (being sold by a member here).1980 XS850SG - Sold
1981 XS1100LH Midnight Special (Sold) - purchased 9/29/08
Fully Vetterized and Dynojet Kit added, Heated Grips, Truck-Lite LED headlight, Accel Coils, Irridium plugs, TKAT Fork Brace, XS850LH Final Drive & Black SS Brake lines from Chacal.
Here's my web page devoted to my bike! XS/XJ User's Manuals there, and the XJ1100 Service Manual and both XS1100 Service manuals (free download!).

I'm mostly only looking for the special tools that the manual says are in the factory kit. i've got my own mostly craftsmen everything else but i want to make sure i've got everything i might need before i hit the road for two days to k.c. from chicago. i'll look for the kicker and andreas said they've got one for fifteen.Whoever coined the phrase livin' the dream forgot to mention whether it was a good dream or bad dream.

Sounds like a fun trip. I'm about centered between those two locations (though not exactly a straight line) if you run into trouble along the way. I may be able to lend some assistance. Good luck!1980 XS850SG - Sold

I am pretty familiar with the st. louis area. my mom is from there my sis. lives there along with many aunts uncles and cousins not to mention a former coastie friend of mine. i do frequent the stl area alot and will be there in june if you want to get together for a ride. however the trip is going to take me north on eighty because it takes about an hour off the trip and i have a very close female friend on the way. thanks for the offer and i will prolly take you up on it for the next st. louis trip i take.Whoever coined the phrase livin' the dream forgot to mention whether it was a good dream or bad dream.
