In case you don't know, to cover all bolts you'll need two torque wrenches. Most 'newbies' have a tendency to overtighten so threads get stripped or nuts/bolts sheared, especially on a budget bike like the SV. Probably the more important one initially is the lower range. You can check the manual to find what you need;- a typical range made is 8 - 40Nm.

Size matters :lol: but quality matters most :!:

Found the manuals on the main site mentioned earlier, so just to save anybody else looking....

i tend just to get the tool kit out and play!

I have got the manual from here and the Haynes too! More info the better and ask on here lots!

Having a curvy means there aint no brain to go mess up! :D haha

Wow, lucky guess, I didn't know!

So, delete 'my first torque wrench'; insert 'my first quality torque wrench in the 8-40Nm range with another one to follow'

Thank you!

Halfords for the fairly-expensive win there... Or Draper if you want cheaper. Or Machine Mart do a low value one which is really pretty rubbish, but costs about £6.

Here's one that starts low but goes well up. The brand seems to get a decent enough name too.

That's uncanny... Teng Tools charge ridiculous amounts for their standard socket wrenches :) Very nice stuff, by and large.
