Yamaha airbox tool.
Here is a tool I made to reach in the narrow opening to loosen the 4 clamps that hold the air box on. It is a 4mm metric hex/allan key epoxyed into a 5/32 by 1/4 " drive socket. Works awesome.

I made a great exhaust spring puller. Took a 4 foot piece of tig wire and folded it in half. Put the two loose ends into my Drill. Then put a tire iron in the bent end and stood on it. Gave the drill a good spin until the wire was tight and all spun together. The tool is strong but flexible. All i need is a socket extender for a handle. Fits nicely under my hood. It has saved my butt lots on the hill.
