    I'm going to have a look at these for an option:

    You can get the silencers on their own, however, the decat and Power Commander bundle looks like a great option which may give gains other than better access.

    I going to have some photographs of a bike (T100) they have in their workshops sent to me later which will hopefully show access around these parts. It may be that while access is improved, offset spanners and a 27mm crows foot wrench are still required to make it easier. I'll add the photo's to this thread when I get them.

    Looking at these tools:

    I'm using a couple of old spanners that for a short time were very intimate with a Dremmel :)

    That's a good option, I'll have to have a look at my spanner collection and see what I can modify or maybe buy some. I did think of this but didn't pursue it as I wasn't sure if the spanners would retain enough strength.

    I bought a 27mm crows foot for my T-Bird Commander hoping it would make the job of setting the belt tension a little easier. There were two problems - it was too thick and large to fit in the space properly:eek:, and the swing arm at the axle is machined at a steep angle which keeps you from getting a good grip on the axle bolt. I never used it, because I was afraid of scratching something, or 'rounding' the nut. I never got to the point of researching the affect of a crows foot on your torque settings, but I know there are calculators available online.
