British bike electrics were legendary for their lack of reliability causing that well know phrase - "Lighting by Lucas - the prince of darkness"
Part of the problem was that many of the brass bullets were soldered on. One should not solder anything on a bike if not essential because the molten solder is drawn into the multi-strand flexible wire by capillary action making the wire a single conductor wire and vulnerable to suffering stress fractures caused by the not inconsiderable vibration found in classic British singles and twins. Another issue is the brass corroding which can be minimised by covering the bullets and sockets in a dielectric grease of corrosion block grease.
These tools can put an end to the delights of soldering bullets. The crimp tool will fit the bullets nicely and the fitting tool squeezes the bullets into sockets which isn't a fun job without this tool

Let customers speak for us
Well no actually!
Nicely weighted Copper/Hide faced hammer. First use for me was to fit the new head race bearings to my Katana.
British made!
And always a chance to chat with Ralph!
Excellent tools, that you can give a whack to a screw to loosen corroded threads without ruining your kit! Great service too, well done Ralph!
Stud extractor worked perfectly. Smooth process from order to delivery. Ralph from Biker Toolbox went above and beyond in helping me. Top man.👍🏻
Great replacement for my old and battered old Vice Grips!
Competitively priced, arrived promptly.
Brilliant service, thanks
Top quality and excellent delivery
Very pleased with these connectors, they bailed me when I needed something to take the place of some proprietary connectors that I could not obtain anywhere.
This crimper does a very reasonable job for the price
