I need to buy, or borrow an overlength 2.5mm allen key to slide
through the frame and undo the boots holding the airbox on.

Anyone who has done their own plugs knows what I am talking about.

Been to Crappy Tire, Lordco... nothing long enough.

Help a Bandito out please.

About 6 inches would suffice.

I have a second option which is to thread on two nuts to the opposite end of the small bolt, and then back it out
from the inside... but then I'm dicking around trying to find the right nuts and thread type.

I bought the longest t handle ones I could find, they are about 5 inches but the collar gets
in they way of the 3/4 inch more I need.

I could mod them, but I'd rather return.

See post #3.

Do you have one? I have enough tools to build a house, and build a bike. Apparently, of the 300 allen keys I own, none are
long enough. And I've been to KMS, been to Lordco, been to Cambodian Tire... I've even asked a stack of bikers... nobody has
one.
