    at 21:32 into the video you called the wrench a "crowsfoot", those are flare nut (or tubing) wrenches typically used on brake lines or when doing propane fittings. Crowsfoot connect to a ratchet or an extension

    When I got my first motorcycle (1973 Yamaha CT3) I bought a Craftsman set of metric wrenches and sockets. I think there might have been 21 pieces in the set. When I got home my dad ripped me a new one for wasting my money on metric tools. It’s been 50 years now and I still use the wrenches but bought a set of the sockets with large numbers since I struggled to see the sizes on the old ones. RIP pops!

    One thing I would add, get 6 point not 12 point tools. 12 point are more prone to rounding off bolts and have less surface area to grab that stubborn bolt.

    My parents were the best "dirt bike parents". No, they did not buy my bikes. No, they did not drive me to the races. No, they did not expend any energy for my riding/racing.
    What they did was let me work on my bike in the basement every winter, and that interested me in manufacturing and engineering.
    No, I did not retire from pro MX and become a Fireman because I had the marketable skills of a HS drop out. :)

    It's hilarious when he got to the multimeter. He said, "You can get an inexpensive one or one like this high dollar one." That meter is a POS. If you don't have a fluke 85 or 87 you have a piece of crap. Typical mechanic that knows nothing about electricity. Stick to your hammers when giving advice.
