Title: What's inside the GS500 tool set?

What's inside the GS500 tool set?

I have the original tool set for my Yamaha and there are some
special wrenches to adjust back damper, steering bearing, and so.

I don't have the tool set for my GS500, are there special tools too?

The shock adjusting tool is in there. However, lots of folks find a long screwdriver works just fine.

Everything else in mine is pretty normal stuff but I could be missing something.

I'd have to have it in front of me to name them all...  Wrenches...  Screw drivers...  Uh...  Some other useful stuff.   :dunno:

The only special tool is the Rear Shock preload tool (the "C" wrench, labeled R32.5 in Pablo's link).  There's a trick to use it as there's precious little swing space.  (It's still a skill I don't have.)    :(
