There aren’t many more disappointing feelings than mechanical issues ending a motorcycle trip before it really begins. But carrying a whole load of tools can be a bit of a pain unless you have something like the Wunderlich Smart Tool Box for the BMW R1200 and R1250 GS models, which can now be mounted to models, without pannier frames.

It’s a pretty simple idea, with a strong injection moulded plastic box measuring just 325 x 150 x 230 mm. So it weights less than big metal panniers, but provides more security and protection than a fabric tool roll. And despite the compact overall size, it still gives you 4.5 litres of storage inside, which should take plenty of the essentials for any motorcycle ride.

And if you’re not sure what to carry with you, or fancy getting it all sorted in one go, a Wunderlich Cordura inner bag which fits the tool box is available for £139, and includes:

  • Motorbike first aid kit 
  • Slime tyre repair kit incl. CO2 cartridges
  • Hazard vest EN ISO 20471
  • Head torch (batteries included)
  • 360° LED warning light
  • BMW multitool with bits 
  • Medium strength thread lock 
  • Folding funnel 
  • Wunderlich black straps 200cm 
  • 10 x zip ties
  • Power fabric tape EXTRA 
  • TESA Extreme repair tape 
  • A pair of work gloves
  • Two cleaning cloths

Spending £300 on a tool box and contents might seem a bit on the pricey side. But if you’re riding regularly, or doing long distances, it could be a worthwhile investment. Especially if you’re intending to visit places which might be off the beaten track, and involve a long wait for a recovery service if you’re still able to get hold of one. Plus it means you can keep a dedicated set of tools and spares on your bike at all times, which means you don’t get caught out by forgetting to bring some zip ties or your multitool the one time you need it.

All the products are available in the UK from Nippy Normans. And for more motorcycle products, including tools, spares and more, click here.
