I’m buying a torque wrench and would like to know what is the maximum torque used on a triumph motorcycles. Probably the axel nuts
Someone knows?
Cheers

180nm on the front sprocket is the highest I have seen.
Buy more than one if you can, so as to cover the best range possible. Torque wrenches are most accurate through their middle range.

100% what the others have said. I have several sizes - one up to 200NM, one to 100, another to 50. I even have one that does inch-lbs for use on my mountain bike.

I saw something cool the other day, it attaches to any wrench and instantly makes it a torque wrench:



Won't fit in many spots, but might be a decent option for the really high torque parts like the countersprocket nut. From what I've read, even the cheap ones like these are typically extremely accurate.

Whilst i have various torque wrenches I only use the one for the lower end when working on engines. Anything that needs big numbers I go by feel. So if you're buying one buy the one that does the finer stuff.
Thanks guys…
Helps a lot
I’m buing one from 2 - 25 and another from 20 - 100 dor now…
Cheers
