Any idea where I can find such a thing?
There's plenty of screwdrivers around, but I'd rather just get a set of 1/4" drive bits.

Some 5/16" bits for a hand impact driver would be nice too...

I have a set in my RRR tool roll for the BMW R1200 GSA. Gordon, the proprietor, has a number of his small pieces made for him by Vessel, including al set of 1/4-inch bits including JIS crossheads. He probably has an option to sell the bits separate from the tool roll, but I don't know details there.

Vessel TD-BS1 is $2.44 for three JIS bits and two slotted in a holder, and the Annex AK-21P-[1,2,3]-80 are $1.35 each.

With shipping, which is complicated sometimes, the cost at least doubles.

Vessel sells right off their website, items will ship from JDV. Extremely good customer service from the latter.

Why would you have JIS on a Bimmer?

Fair question. The toolkit isn't BMW specific; it was put together to work on Japanese bikes, too.

JIS works great on Phillips, in fact. I prefer them. It does't work the other way -- using a Phillips on a JIS crosshead will strip the head.

So my toolkit will work on any bike, mine or somebody else's on the road.
