What do you think people? What are your opinions on accuracy? I need to buy either this or a 3/8" wrench, and this is WAY cheaper![]()

there are certain bolts/nuts that SHOULD be torqued up, plus the piece of mind that you've done it up to factory specs leaves you feeling just that little bit more safe....well it does for me atleast.Yogi said:Is there any reason why a torque wrench is a must have?
I've always torqued up most bolts by feel. Haven't stripped a thread since I was 13 or so.
And nothing that I've tightened has fallen of my bike....to my knowledge.
That's fine if you're taking fairings off, but have you ever pulled a head off an engine and then bolted it back on with a new gasket by feel?Yogi said:Is there any reason why a torque wrench is a must have?

a proper digital torque wrench is the same size as a micrometer type.
