My review of the:
Windzone EK-1HD Tool Kit/ Essential Toolkit for Harley and American hybrids. (Fits most fork bags)

After carful consideration of making out of town trips on weekends on my sportster I felt it required to have a basic tool set to take along. I have several Craftman, Snap-On MAC and Matco tools, but really hate to see them get stolen off my bike. First thought was to build a kit with cheap emergency tools such as carried by Harbor Freight. After gathering a list of needed tools the total would run around $60-$75 Not too bad..... I them ran across WindZone Tool Kits. Originally I priced on thier website the EK-1HD Basic Tool Kit. MSRP and price ordered from their site was $69.99... After a little search on eBay I found a authorized dealer selling them for $49.99 Buy Now Price... Wow I felt that was a decent savings considering it came in a custome puoch and stated it would fit in most fork bags.

The Kit Contains the Following:
Contents of Windzone EK-1HD Tool Kit
3/8" Drive Ratchet
5/8" Spark plug socket
13/16" Spark plug socket
3/8-7/16" Open-ended wrench
1/2-9/16" Open ended wrench
5/8-3/4" Open ended wrench
10mm Combination wrench
Small slotted screwdriver
Small Phillips screwdriver
Slotted screwdriver
Phillips screwdriver
Locking pliers
7 pce. Torx set (T-10 -T-40)
Hex keys (9)
Tire pressure gauge
Spark plug gap gauge
Electrical wire
Flashlight
Mechanic's wire
Siphon hose
Electrical tape
Cable ties (5)
Spare turn / tailight bulb
Shop Towel

I ordered mine and it was here in 3 days. After inspecting the tools and kit in general I feel they are decent tool quaility for the price. The storage puoch fit perfect in my forkbag. I think for the price it is well worth the investment into dedicated emergency tools that would come in handy for anyone riding.

 

Ya know, I never thought of it like that before. I was planning on making a kit out of my tools, but now you got me wondering.

 

Sounds like a better deal than what I got. I picked up a CruzTools kit to go along with a locking toolkit. I've used it a couple of times but for mostly minor things. Of course, the most important thing is the know-how to make the repair. Otherwise it's just a bag of tools

You know, that's not such a bad looking set. Thanks for the review.
I had a salesman come into the shop just last week, plugging these sets, but all he had to show me was a brochure.
For my own bikes, I used to put together tool kits from extra tools I had kick'n around. Hardly worth doing that at 40-50 bux for the WindZone.

 

I just happened to see that SEARS sells a real nice rollup bag to put your own collection in..... Work a look if you are going to gather us extras..

Bruce,
Did you go a head and get a Sears roll up bag and make your own kit? I have been recommending the Wind Zone in several posts now as I have had one for a while, but the elements have taken their toll on both the tools and bag.... I have been thinking about building my own kit and maybe using one of these:
