Feeler Gauge

Hi
When these /5's were new they had a set of feeler gauges included in the tool roll. It had only 4 gauges and tucked nicely in a very small pocket in the roll. Does anyone know who sells these?
Thanks
Brian

I appears the early Airheads did have it, but as I recall my /7 tool kit doesn't have one. I checked a few places online and didn't find the feeler gages. You could try Beemerboneyard or Re-psycle. Whenever I travel long distances, I usually pack a handful of additional tools and my full-blown feeler gage set is included.
 
I selected only the ones needed for my my /5 from a set of complete feeler gauges. I put them on a holder and only have three : intake, exhaust and spark plug gap. I labeled the feeler gauges for their intended purpose and keep the whole unit in my tool kit. It isn't original but it is functional.

That works Kurt.

I've used various sets of those feeler gauges for my Airheads, Oilheads, etc. One tip is to run a string through them to a) keep them together and b) allow for easier use on the Oilheads where you are wanting to have two feeler gauges employeed at the same time.
