Carrying tools

Post by Eagle6 »

I've moved all the electrics from the rear of the seat to allow fitting of an Autocom and Kenwood PMR setup, but I'm still shy of somewhere to keep my puncture repair kit and Airman pump. Toolroll is in OEM position strapped under seat.
Has anyone seen a neat toolbox and mount location that's available for the 12R?

TIA

In addition, I fattened up the rolled-up tool bag that straps the bottom of the seat to include a bunch of additional tools, ratchet and sockets and Torx bits and keys and the tool to remove the front axle, that I thought necessary to carry.

Depending on how big those items are they could fit in the space in the side covers. I have the power supply for my sat radio in one side and a puncture kit in the other.
