All,

Does anyone know what size Torx TR screw is used for the tank badges on the new Triumphs?

Thanks,
Hitch

It is usually cost effective to purchase the whole range of 1/4 drive" bits. Individual units can cost up to 1/2 the complete set.
You'll find other uses. Remember, you can use the security bit on conventional screws, if needed.

Auto parts store sell quite a few of these because they are sometimes used on so called "tamper proof" emission settings.

Just don't use the security bit on high torque applications like the cam cover or something. In theory it could collapse... I have a set of rear torx bits and then just the one torx driver for the badges. Serves me well. Was about 2 bucks.
