Woke up early to beat the heat and get a nice little putt down the river road… wait until the end an eagle landed on the railing…. Gonna be a great day

This Leatherman was my grandmother’s. Think about that for a second, after 45 years that leather sheath still rides tight and every tool on it still works. If you’re telling me that didn’t stand the test of time I don’t know what to tell you.

The 80s version didn’t have a locking blade, which is basically just begging you to cut your finger off. I love that about it. Still carried it for a while but didn’t want to beat it up too bad so now it lives here as the one I don’t touch. The Charge Plus is my backup, also great tool, little stiffer because I haven’t put the miles on it that I have the Wave Plus. Missing a couple things the Wave has but still no doubt in my mind if you want one tool on your hip every single ride, Leatherman is the only answer. My grandmother knew it in the 80s. I know it now.

I’d take my grandmas 1980s Leatherman over most of the new stuff out there. Less tools, better quality, and I know it’s not going to break on me when I need it.

I’ve tried a few different versions but I keep going back to the Wave Plus. It’s got everything I need and nothing I don’t. When I reach for it I’m not second guessing whether it’s going to hold up. The inferior brands? You know the ones… They’re going to break on you at the worst possible time. That’s what cheap tools do.

The way I look at it you can either pack a full tool roll every time you ride and still wonder if you grabbed enough, or you throw one Leatherman on your hip and you’re covered. I know which one I’m doing.

When you need something that’s not gonna break in the shop, on the chop or on the road. Yah gotta roll with a Leatherman

I’ve had enough people ask what I take with me on the road that it seemed like it was time to make a video on it. No knock to guys that bring a full tool roll. Having all the options probably makes your life easier. But I’m trying to ride as light as I possibly can. So if you see me and my leatherman isn’t on my hip, call an ambulance something’s wrong, that or my ADD kicked in at the wrong time again.

This isn’t a sponsored video (yet, we’ll see if leatherman wants to team up). I just genuinely love their tool and the Wave Plus is with me every single day. You can see from the full video on YouTube that they’ve been making a quality product since they came out in the 80’s.

What’s the do it all chopper tool? If you think something different drop it in the comments. 👇🏼

I don’t leave the house without a Leatherman on my hip. Same as putting on my shoes every morning it’s just part of getting dressed. Always there, never think about it until I need it.
And when I need it on the side of the road, it’ll always get me out of a jam. That’s really all I need to know about a tool.

Danger Dan’s Talk Shop kickstart competition is something you can’t miss. Especially when he’s making guys lay show bikes one the ground and pull their plugs to see if they’ll still start 😂

If you wanna see the whole thing and who won check out the full video on Evolution Cycles YouTube!

If you asked me to put a number on building an M8 into a chopper right now…

I’d say budget 20 to 40k. All new platform, all new R&D figuring out how to make these things work outside of a stock frame. You might start at 20k and realistically end up closer to 40 once you’re actually done.

Because M8s are so new prices stay pretty similar but any vintage motor prices shift depending on where you live. Florida, California, wherever, it’s all over the map. This is just a rough idea based on what I’m seeing locally.

But if your old neighbor’s got a Knuckle sitting in his garage and says give me a grand for it? Buy it. Don’t overthink that one.
