If you're going to get a set from Craftsman, wait for sales, they have them all the time and can save you big money. Look for a set with main emphisis on 3/8" drive components. You will need 1/2" drive gear, however it can be more basic. You'll get the most return from your money if you first get the necessary equipment to change the lubricants. In fact, pick up everything you need to change fluids first. This is the bikes basic need and will save you alot of shop time. Expand your tools from there. Servce manual should be in your hands before you buy any tools.

Find a Mom & Pop store to spend your money. Most places like that only sell top quality products, and your money will stay local. Big box stores normally can't answer even simple questions.

+1 here. Support the local stores. The box stores and the internet are killing the little stores and can't offer the same kind of customer service.
