I don't know if they even had a torque wrench, but that was in the stone age. Everything was by feel.

Awww...the days of the knuckle and panheads. Back then,they probably didn't have much more then 1/2", 9/16", 5/8" and 3/4" wrench's, same sockets, pliers,vise grips,phillips and flathead screwdrivers. And you're right, most everything was by feel.
Those were the days!
Today, I assure you that a good mechanic in a decent motorcycle shop will have an inch pound torque wrench somewhere in the thousands of $'s worth of standard/metric tools in his rollaway.
Glad you've figured out a way to 'Get-r-done'.
