Torx Bits - Common Sizes
With my 2018 Fat Bob being delivered soon, I'm trying to sort a few "maintenance" things out. While I have a wealth of standard and metric tools I have little to no Torx bits, which I believe are pretty common on most of the allen head fasteners.
Can anyone chime in with the common sizes required. I figure I best buy a few good one over a cheap set where 80% don't get used. If there are any other "special" tools that are useful for general maintenance, repair and upgrading, feel free to let me know.
Thanks!

You may consider getting a small set of the ones with the security hole. You will at times come across a Torx with a nipple in the bolt head. There is a Torx bit that has a hole in the center to allow you to remove them. They also work on normal Torx bolts

I 100% agree, dealer wants close to $200 Canadian for one, so I'll be looking online. Is there one for the Fat Bob or just the 2018+ Soft Tail line up?
