I'll have to call the dealer - my bike had a tool kit. They may have added it...

Mine did not come with one, but I did keep my 2012 SG one. it would take nothing to keep one in with the bike. Cutting corners

I got one with my 13 Ultra, along with their useless helmet installable headset.

Got one with the '14 Limited. So far all I've used it for was to take the bathroom door at a motel off of it's hinges (long story). Tool is better than nothing, but not by much.

For me it made no difference as I have always preferred the Cruz Tools version and/or the ones I put together. My opinion of manufacture supplied tool kits no mater if it was a metric or HD was they were better off tossed in a box in the garage as they more often than not give you busted knuckles, striped heads, nuts etc...

Didn't get one with my 17RGS so I took the one out of my 15 SGS when I traded it in. Dealer wouldn't even offer to give me one after purchasing 2 new bikes from him within 2 years. Like giving away tool kit is gonna bust their budget? Talk about being cheap.

My '15 RGS came with one, but it was a POS. My '17 RGS did not include one. I went to Harbor Freight and put together a small SAE set in a bag for about $20.

My '15 came with one, if you call it that. The swiss army knife thing.
My '17 didn't, so I bought a Snap-On HD tool kit, but it stays at home in the cabinet. I got tired of hearing it bounce around.
I look at it just like my vehicles, they don't come with tools either.

I know Snap On is quality but wow $220? And no torx included or is torx only needed for accessories?
