Weekend Wrencher Must Have: Mechanics Stool
Since the Ninja 250R is a very popular first bike for many riders, there might be a few tools that you don’t know about That can really help you out.
The First MUST HAVE is a solid mechanics stool. This will keep you off the ground and off your knees. Most importantly, it’ll keep your arms at project level so they don’t get fatigued while working. This guy is perfect for working on Motorcycles, ATV’s, Quads, Scooters, etc.
As an added bonus, make sure you buy one with a parts tray. This way, as you take off nuts and bolts, you have a place to put them so they don’t get misplaced. I personally like one with 2 trays.. I have one tray to keep tools, and one to keep parts.
You can pick a craftsman one up at Sears (see picture) for about $80 — Or you can find they at most home improvement and auto-parts stores for ~$40.
Trust me. They are worth every penny.
