The old tool bag is dead. Long live the new tool bag!

Looks good.

I use bank bag style zipped tool pouches and wrap a section of hook and loop around it to keep the tools inside from floating around. Not fool proof but pretty effective.

One thing I really love bout the VStrom is that with this simple tool bag, I had enough tools to completely take apart and rebuild my bike. My friend with a F650GS needs a full saddlebag for his tools!

Probably need them all too along with a top case full of spare parts just to run errands. I hear BMW are expensive to maintain and need it continually.

I should have swapped this out a long time ago. The old bag seemed great at first, but then my screw drivers and opened ended wrenches poked so many holes in it that my sockets fell out. The last straw was a few weekends ago when a water bottle spilled in my trunk, and oxidized some of my tools .

I'm excited about the sturdier canvas and the new compartments that will help me find the right tool sooner than one big bag.
