How does one adjust the torque on the bolt that is located on the head within the exhaust valve cover? I can get a box wrench on it but how would I measure the needed torque? Is there a device that I can buy that will accomplish this task?
Thanks!
Thanks!
Do a search in Google to find a photo of them.
May tool makers make open ended crows foot wrenches, but very few make then in the boxed end style.

Install it 90 degrees to the arm of your torque wrench so you dont have to calculate the increase in the lever arm length.

The diagram you show is for the adapter inline with the wrench increasing the lever arm
I was going to tell the OP the same but didn't for fear of getting thrown under the bus by some know it all internet mechanic out there. You wont have a minutes trouble doing this as long as you use common sense (a real unicorn these days) and tighten the nut as close as reasonibly possible to the torque of the others.
If you must use your torque wrench http://www.motionpro.com/product/08-0134 Your local dealer should be able to order this tool for you out of a Parts Unlimited or Tucker Rocky catolog. Like the posts above, try to get the tool 90° to the torque wrench. If you cant, try to get it as close as you can. Common sense works well here also. It's a dirt bike, not the Space Shuttle.
