What about one of these? A 3mm Allen Key, with TITS!
(you may have to right-click and select Open Image to see the right tit)
A bloke named Plaka (some may recognise the style of a recent arrival in BoxerworksLand) posted a question on ADV a few months ago about this very tool.
http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=914690
The responses indicated that, like good taste, some people had it in their kit and some didn't. Nobody was able to point to a fastener on their BMW that the tool would usefully fit, though it was established that it is called a 'Piloted Allen'.

My original BMW fabric tool roll decided it didn't want to fulfil its nominal function any more, so I made my own. I gave the old one a good christian binning.
The visegrips come in very handy for proper Australian bush repair work with 'borrowed' fencing wire.

Once you start that fancy sewing stuff you're on your way, next comes specialised panniers to carry the enlarge tool kit, then a pannier for the bike lift ... it never ends !Airbear wrote:Hey, mine's bigger 'n yours.ME 109 wrote: Come on you blokes, showuz yer kits!

It is big Charlie!What's that tool to the left of your spark plug spanner? It looks rather heyco-ish.
