  • Various ratchets
  • Torque Wrench
  • Allen attachments from ratchets
  • various sockets
  • Screwdriver or similar item to repress rockers
  • Feeler gauges. The smaller the steps between the feelers and thinner the thinnest one is the better
  • Cotter pin puller
  • Magnet on a stick
  • Spark Plug socket
  • Mechanics gloves - the vertical cylinder roller can tear up tender fingers right well getting it into position

when changing the belts, it's nice to have the camshaft pulley tool.  The vertical cylinder wants to move when you take the belt off, and it is easier to move it back with the special tool.

These may be necessary

  • Micrometer
  • Fine grit wet/dry sand paper
  • Plastic forceps or other way to keep valves from falling into the bore if you need to remove the closer shim


Optional make it easy tools

  • Crank turner

I feel like I'm missing something... but that's most of it

Will do just about everything on a monster.

I'm a tool fiend, but really this isn't needed. The crank turner sure... but it's not that hard to get the vertical roller back into position when it's time to belt up again. But as I said, you'll want gloves on as it does like to spin on the springs and can be a bit rough on fingers.

Thnx Sad Panda, I got my Haynes 2v Manual in the mail today so I am almost ready. One more question: What kind of stand should I buy? Is a rear stand good enough?
