I have the yamaha manual for my rd400 and it shows the 8mm nuts torqued to 2nm (17.7 in lbs). My torque wrench only goes down to 20 in lbs. Is it going to be ok to go up to 20 in lbs on those? I've heard the 6mm bolts like to strip easy so I was going to torque those by feel with a 1/4inch drive with my hand to the very top. They don't take much and you need a fancy digital torque wrench for those.
They'll be fine. Go by feel if you have to.
Dont need a digital one, just a small one. I have a proto one that 2nm is about mid scale.
I have never actually used a torque wrench on anything other than head bolts, or if it has valves then the cam caps as well.
Everything else is just by feel.
