How many different sizes are needed with a Harley? Would the Sears assorted up to 45 cover almost all my needs?

The autozone $29.99 set goes up to T60. I have not used it on the harley but I have needed it for auto work. They are LT guarantee and I actually like them better than the craftsman ones. Better holder rack and the centerpiece does not fall out as easily as the craftsman ones.
I use them a LOT for car brakes and have not broken one.

Make sure you get a T27; it doesn't often come standard in sets.

T27 comes in advanced auto set its actually out lasted my Snap-On T27. Kinda sad since my SnapOn T27 alone cost what the advanced auto set did. And the Craftsman set didn't used to come with the T27 may now not sure.
