Destroyed my Swingarm, take my advice.

Grossest misuse of a torque wrench I've ever seen. That one is obviously calibrated for a watch repairman. Notice the non-marring head.

Sorry! I just can't help myself.

Aloha,

Just got in to the party. Man that pic was some deep sh-t.

Glad you didn't get injured...the main thing.

I personally am not experienced enough to do without a torque wrench.

Especially on what I feel are critical parts. Maybe some day
I wil be confident enough...IDK. till then it will be torque wrenches.

Be safe and ride well.

 

my buddy and i used to test our "hands" against the torque wrench and we were usually very close

 

Please do not post any pix of this.

 

Phushaw, we don't need no stinking torque wrenches here. otstir:

Just gimme a few sledges, spanners, hacksaws and C4 and I can destroy anything!!! :flame:

 

You repair things with tools and fix them with hammers!

Good thing my urologist didn't give me my vasectomy with a sledge!

I joined this forum just to congratulate the OP on becoming an internet sensation! :hail:

 

And, yes, there is that too. The o-rings are also shot.

 

The original poster is gona get a lot of miles out this post, more than his chain and sprokets...ound:

 

This girl can wrench!

 

So if you had a hammer you would build yourself a swingarm? :biggrin:

When tightening by hand isn't good enough, break out the big guns.

 

Harley torque wrench??

 

Anyone calibrate their torque wrenches?

 

Sure. That's why I have a torque-calibrating torque wrench and I keep a calibrating wrench calibrator as a backup for that.
