Here's a cheap fix to the tool kit hardware problem on the 2008 Yamaha XT250, and maybe other model and year bikes. You will need a drum cymbal stand clamp bolt or screw (two if using your XT's spare glove/tool box) and of course a drum hardware key, all of which can be found at a music store. Notice the cymbal clamp screw should have a washer. You will need to carry the drum key to get to your tools or items in the spare glove/tool box but it beats carrying a screwdriver or asking your buddy for one on the trail.
