How do you properly torque an allen head bolt? Are there allen head attachments for torque wrenches?

I also got a set of allen head bolts for the handle bars. The set included the bolts for the bars and tripple clamps. I got a smaller set for the clutch lever and brake MC. I also went tot the hardware store and got some for the electric controls.

Keep an eye on E-Bay for a seller named "Searay340". He sells complete kits and even Kits of different size bolts. I have a kit that has the allen head bolts for the carbs also and they look great when installed. Most places these bolts are used don't really have a torque issue. Like on the engine covers, I just snug them down and let the gasket do it's job.
