Listers, Heads, I just got a Craftsman Club flyer from Sears. Craftsman Microtork Torque Wrenches will be going on sale for Craftsman Club members for $59.99 each. Regular price is $79.99. Part numbers are 44593/4/5. To get the good price you must be a Craftsman Club member which is free. To join get an application at the tool counter at your local Sears store OR go on line and sign up at www.craftsman.com OR call 800 682-8691. You must sign up in time to get your membership card as the sales folks can't give you the good price without it. For those needing a pretty decent torque wrench this might be a good opportunity to snag one or two or maybe even all three.

What do you mean by 'almost red-lining at slow speeds'????? Did you 'smoke' the clutch? If the engine seems normal and can rev up to almost red-line BUT your bike isn't getting up to speed very fast, it sounds like the clutch. Don R100, A6F --- In DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com, "markwhitegb" wrote:

FYI there is place you can have the calibration checked and possibly done depending on your particular torque wrnech. This is normal pratice with ISO certified company using torque wrench.

Btw, do you know how delicate torque wrenches are? I have one for ft. lbs. that i've left in the trunk of my car, and i think i've read somewhere that they can be somewhat delicate. Also, i think i've left it "on" about 60 lbs or so for a while before putting it back to zero. Do you know if any of this can throw off the calibration? thanks, Dan [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
