JIS screwdrivers
I've been thinking about getting some JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) screwdrivers for awhile. I was taking the throttle cable housing off the bike and just tired of the poor way the phillips head screwdriver fit the screws on the Honda. I've known about the difference between JIS and Phillips for a long time. Decided to order some from Amazon.
They really do fit better. I was really amazed at the difference. They fit the screws on the throttle and light switch assembly and the brake reservoir cover with no slop at all. So much more precise.
A set of 4 plus an additional #2 stubby were about $47 shipped. They are made by Hozan and sold by Ikaswebshop. I think it would have been a couple bucks cheaper to order direct from IKASWEBSHOP.com -- IKAS, INCORPORATED -- Hozan Tools, Toyo Lint Free, Vessel
They shipped quick USPS from WA.
