I upset they no longer have cigarette lighters and ash trays.

As for the tool kit, is a regular screw driver useless on a Harley? Would you not need a complete set of specialized tools? lol

I saved some money and didn't buy the HD trunk detatch kit. I use my tool kit to change my bike depending on my mood and passenger.

I got a tool kit two Harleys ago and still haven't used it, plus the tool kit that came with the 2014 FLHX, not used.

Leave The CB to the Truckers out on the Highway.

My 14 Limited didnt' have that tool kit, not sure if they dealer removed it or what, but when I mentioned it to the dealer when I went in for recall #1, they just gave me one outa their stock. You're not missing much.
I did use the slot blade screwdriver from that gadget a month or so ago to remove the hinge screws on a motel bathroom door (long story), but have not used it to work on the bike. I use my real tools when I'm at home doing scheduled service, and have not yet broken down on the road to need any tools. Knock wood.

None of my Harleys in the last umpteen years came with a toolkit. When did that change?! Oh - of course, I never bought an Ultra - ah well!

Losing the CB is big deal to people that do large group rides or even local benefit rides. I use mine at least every other time i ride. As for the tool kit, I bet they just forgot to give it to you.

I don't see the toolkit listed in the parts manual for the 2017 Ultra. Hence I bet it isn't included.

I don't think you're missing anything not getting a tool kit with the new bike. I was so disappointed by the folding tool kit in my '15 FLHTK (I mean it seemed there wasn't anything common it could do roadside) that I went out and got this:

Stupid expensive but really nice quality. Too nice (and a bit too heavy) to take on road trips
