I normally go to the local ironmongers and get them there. Have also bought rarer sized sockets off amazon.
Screw fix! Forgot about them. There's also machine mart. The race mechanic at work told me about them. They buy bits and pieces from them and they also have some ducati specific tools. Just priced up a 3/4" 46mm socket by britool and is less than £20.
Good idea. I've just been on the Machine Mart website, individual sockets section, and they have several types available for each size. So I have just ordered 23, 28 & 29 mm sockets which were the ones missing from my toolbox.
They're a mixed bag, Machine Mart. They do have a very good selection on loose socket sizes, including a 55 mm for the rear wheel nut. But on some things they are far from the cheapest, particularly power tools, and a lot of the - I guess Chinese made - Clarke gear isn't very good to say the least. Useful firm, but it pays to do a price check before committing.
The Halfords Advanced 170 piece advanced set is down to £100 online today. Now if any of you want to buy me a Christmas present, this is a good place to start
