There are a whole bunch of different Yamahs that need the YU-33975 Steering Nut Wrench to adjust the preload on the head bearings. I would really rather send my money to support some local fella than Bike Jonny in the UK. For one thing I don't need a 19mm tool for my front fork. I already have a perfectly adequate spark plug wrench that does double duty. Plus, looking at their tool it doesn't look like something worth what they are charging.
I had considered hand fabricating one from some 1/4" steel stock I have laying around, but my crude hand tools would not result in anything special to look at. If one of you guys that has metal fabrication capability and expertise would turn out a clone of the Yamaha wrenches I seriously think you could make a nice chunk of change.
I imagine that if it was really pretty you could get even more than Jonny...
