What affordable torque wrenches are you guys using? and it seems that most of these are too big for the bike.

 

Digital vs Click ?

 

Your thoughts appreciated.

I have a few different wrenches. Warren & Brown 3/8" deflecting beam ( 320500 ) for small work. It is a dual signal. Also a 1/2" version ( 323500 ) for heavier jobs. Both Australian made.

My favourite is a Norbar 1/2" 15003 model 20-100Nm 

Alcohol! No good story starts with a salad.

Hey mate...do you happen to know the torque ranges on the T700? Min and Max...would one wrench do the job?

Do yourself a favour; download and print.

I use a 1/2" drive Craftsman click type that is circa 2005.  Back then there was some testing done in some magazine and for the money it was a great option.  I can't advise if the new Craftsman torque wrenches are as good but I've been very pleased with it.

 

I also have a Snap-on 3/8" Techwrench that has been phenomenal, although you can't leave batteries in it or they drain.  This one was purchased in probably 2007 and was slightly used when I got it.  But I like it a lot.  Here is the item:
