to find a 1/4" torque wrench. However I must admit I'm now even more confused. If I had to choose between a 1/4" or a 3/8", which would be best? Again, I'm going to do the Doo and a valve adjustment and would like to buy one or the other. Most of my metric sockets above 8mm are 3/8", so I would just as soon get the 3/8" if it will do the job.> > Thank you all for your responses. I now have some good ideas where
just rec'd shipping confirmation. You rock! Even were it not for that, your appeal for the folks of Greensburg hit me where it counts, my pocketbook. After watching media coverage, and feeling an emptiness and despair in the bottom of my stomach for those good people, but not having been spurred to action, your appeal brought it home for me. I have just made a contribution to the Red Cross. Whether it's the Red Cross, or the Salvation Army as Blake suggests, this is our chance to make a difference. I would invite all the KLRista's to make whatever contribution they can, and having done so, make a simple post, "Done" Thank you all for letting me be part of this community.> > A side note to Fred@Arrowhead, thank you.

HI Nolo, quick look on the net locates a 20-200 in/b 1/4 drive torque wrench at Harbour Freight Tools for under $30 http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=2696 and if you check the Mark.net site common torques chart http://www.klr650.marknet.us/torque.html the 1/4 will cover most but not all of your needs quite nicely. That being said I just did the doo, the valves and the oil screen with my 3/8 wrench that goes down to 5ft/bs. which just barely does the lowest values needed. Before I repeat the valve check later in the summer I'll buy a 1/4 wrench. In my case I have access at work to torque wrenchs so when I checked mine at 5lb incrents against the 1/4 at work, after seeing all the postings about torque wrenchs in the rather crude way placing one in a vice and setting both the same values then checking to make sure they clicked at the sae time, it was as close as feel and hearing could tell. One other thing to consider is all of the low torque fasteners, read easily stripped or broken are in in/lbs while my 3/8 and most I've seen are in ft/lbs, easy conversion but one more chance to make a mistake and at best for example covert 69 in/lbs and find the exact setting on a ft/lb torque wrench so it's a matter of how exact you want to be. For my .02 cents or perhaps I should say $50 buy both, the 1/4 first if you only want one but I would buy both, used properly they'll last forever and be cheaper then the cost or agravation of dealing with one stripped case or cam cap hole, viewed another way still much cheaper than paying a dealer to do the service for you.....Have a great day....Greg>
