British bike electrics were legendary for their lack of reliability causing that well know phrase - "Lighting by Lucas - the prince of darkness"
Part of the problem was that many of the brass bullets were soldered on. One should not solder anything on a bike if not essential because the molten solder is drawn into the multi-strand flexible wire by capillary action making the wire a single conductor wire and vulnerable to suffering stress fractures caused by the not inconsiderable vibration found in classic British singles and twins. Another issue is the brass corroding which can be minimised by covering the bullets and sockets in a dielectric grease of corrosion block grease.
These tools can put an end to the delights of soldering bullets. The crimp tool will fit the bullets nicely and the fitting tool squeezes the bullets into sockets which isn't a fun job without this tool

Let customers speak for us
Quality items delivered quickly.
Good crimps. Brilliant for joining wire and the shrink tube provided is a bonus. A used a crimping tool I already had and it worked fine
Great service, great items exactly as description 👍
The only way to work on Japanese bikes without knackering up the screw heads. Fit perfectly in to a hex adaptor or impact driver
Not used these yet, however, they appear to be good quality and also referenced from the Haynes Manual for the Ducati Scrambler 803 so I'm hopeful these will allow me to do the belt change with minimal issues.
Arrived quickly and does what it says on the tun. Thank you 😊
I fitted this on Bikers Toolbox Advice to my 1967 Positive Earth Triumph that I was fitting with LED indicators, but i wired the flasher with L to Live from the battery as advised ( normally L is to indicator and B to battery). It worked a treat
Nice and compact, good quality, fits under the seat of my Tiger 800 nicely.
Great selection of products covering all requirements.

All good, not a tool used every day, but its' use so far has been good.
