I love the Craftsman ratchet shifter! :lol: Well played sir.

Hope that cheap wrench doesn't bend when used as a sidestand. I bet I could tweak one of those bare handed if used as a cheater or a prybar.

I like the tool theme, just don't overdo it IMO. It will look like OCC built your bike. :blink:
