the torx sets are pretty cheap, I bought my set from a farmers market for around £4.00.

Maybe someone here will lend you one if you mail it back to them??? Tools have been swapped here before. I would except I haven't been able to afford the $92 for a new badge. Need too many other things, like new chain, 18K mile servce( 23k miles on the bike). etc. etc..

I got a single T25 driver at True Value for like 3 bucks. I take them off whenever I wax the bike. Takes two seconds.
