Looks like a very nice tool kit.
Have you purchased one? If so, does it live up to its billing?
Good roads,

Cruz Tools also has a BMW kit, which I own and love. It's pretty complete but lacks an oil filter wrench - however it DOES come with Loctite and WD40!

Does the CruzTools kit contain the gubbin to remove the front wheel?

Because it's fresh in my mind, I just checked ...
The Cruz Tools kit doesn't list a T55 Torx bit as being in the kit, which means you can't use it to (for instance) put on a set of SW-Motech crash guards.
The AdvDesigns does ... but that said, I'm not at all certain it's worth the delta in price. And, regardless, you'll want a torque wrench. :-)
Good roads,
