Great mechanics can use cheap tools, lesser mechanics need good tools, and inexperienced mechanics need great tools, as they don't have the developed skills to overcome the tool's lack of quality.
You will never regret getting and using good tools. They are a lifetime investment. The best torque wrench I ever used for motorcycles was a 3/8" drive, flex head, ratcheting reversible 0-75 foot pound pre-set click type Snap-on item. I have a non-flex head version that goes to 100 ft lbs. and a big half inch drive version, too, in case I go nuts and start working on heavy machinery again.
Splurge, don't look back, and you will be happy while you work.
