You'll probably need two if you want to cover the full range, i.e. rear hub down to sidecasing nuts.
I use a Norbar torque wrench that's rated from 5 - 45 il ft which covers most jobs.

I doubt you will get one that will the full range from back plate to rear hub. Recommend two, a 3/8 drive for smaller engine stuff and a 1/2 drive for the rest.
Just that little bit quicker BB

Beam type are best, but they don't look as cool. Wish I still had mine.HxPaul wrote:I use a beam type torque wrench which can be used in both directions,good for torquing the flywheel nut.

By beam do you mean the square for the socket knocks through the head of the torque wrench?

Does this work on l/h threads and will I need to sell my scooter to buy it?
