Does the 2014 Limited include a basic tool kit?
Like the title says ... Does Harley include a basic tool kit in the new models? I have never bought a new bike. This will be my first.
What's in the tool kit? The multi purpose wrench things? The 4 headed screw driver thingy? Anything else?
Or, is that maybe a dealer by dealer thing and not something the factory includes?
Yeah, I know it'll be very basic, and I have a better tool kit on my bike now. I am asking because I am selling my old bike before I get my new one. I am wondering if I should leave the stuff I got with it (the things mentioned above) since I will get new ones, or should I keep the old tools if H-D no longer includes them. Of course I am keeping the wrenches and such I bought along the way.

My 2014 Ultra Limited came with what Harley calls "All-In-One Folding Tool-94435-10".

It's much more compact than the previous tool kits that came with the bikes, I think it's a upgrade. Lighter and easier to store. Includes: Torx bits, Hex Bits, 3/32, 1/4, 3/8, screwdriver bits, Phillips, slotted, Open end wrenches 9/16, 1/2 and 10mm. Comes with a nylon pouch.
I also carry a tire inflation and repair kit. Beyond that, I carry my motorcycle towing service card; just in case.
Hope this helps

That thing is ugly! Yeah, more compact, but looks painful on the hand. I think I'll at least keep the 4 headed screw driver thing. I never liked the wrench things. They are awkward. Kind of like the picture of the new tool. I'll leave them in the bike.
Thanks for the quick replies and the link to a picture

My tool kit includes all the things I have bought while on the road because I needed them! A crescent wrench that doubles as a hammer. 
A cheap small set of english and metric open ended wrenches. A set of english and metric allen wrenches. A small needle nose pliers with side cutter. Vice Grip. An air pump. Black tye wraps. Mini screwdriver with knife inside. The screwdriver that came with it that as 2 torx and one each flat and cross tip heads for it. Flashlight. Locktite. Playtex Gloves (in case I need to stay "clean"). Seems like there are a couple other things in that bag. It sits in the bottom of a saddle bag with the rain suit on top all the time. I also have a leatherman multi tool in my pocket all the time.

My dealer and I need to have a chat about this tool kit. MOCO needs to rethink it.
I kept my old (HD) highway foot pegs off my 2009 with the 2009 tool kit. I didn't have the right size with the 2014 tool kit to reinstall. OK, tried to over look that one.
Today I tried to lower the passenger floor boards for my wife. I grabbed the handy dandy tool kit and I am not able to use it to adjust the passenger floor boards.
I am not a wrench guy. But at the same time if something easy needs to be tightened down while on the road. The took kit should be able to take care of the emergency stuff on the road.
So keep your old tool kit and or be ready to add to the new one.

I'm scared now,.... if they included a mini folding tool kit, for a 25 to 28,000 dollar bike, ?? Must be a thank you gift for your purchase, like they gave an mini Ipod with a purchase of the 2013 cvo's- road glide and road king.
but always safe than sorry.

My 2014 Limited came with a basic tool kit. On the other hand I was not expecting it to come with a come roll out of Snap On tools either. No one sez you can't add to it. I was pleased it came with any type of tools, I got my money's worth on this new Limited as a Motorcycle, wasn't expecting more extra stuff.
