Torque - Fluid - Temp Converter - Free

Hey guys. Here is an Excel spreadsheet I created that you can use with any bike. It will convert Torque specs, fluid amounts, temperature and lenghts. On the left side you can add your most frequently used torque specs (up to 400) for quick reference. It will automatically convert Lb-ft to LB-in and Lb-Ft to NM. If you print the sheet using the defualt setting it will print the first 50 items listed to keep handy with your service manual.

The forum would only alow me to upload in a zip file so you'll have to extract it. If you do not have Microsoft Excel, go to OpenOffice.org - The Free and Open Productivity Suite and get a completely free office suite that will work just as well.

Enjoy!

PLEASE SEE BELOW POST FOR A DIFFERENT FILE FORMAT.

YOU try uploading it again. I'm not poking the bear.........

I don't believe I have the Excel hardware to support it, although, I've opened work spread sheets before on Excel at home.............

It's official: I'm Cumputerarilly Retardeded.

I clicked the link and downloaded the file just fine. However I got a corrupt file message when I tried to unzip the file.

Try this

The system is doing somehting to the file to corrupt it. I am trying to upload as a PDF. You will need to change the file extension to .xls. I just tried it and it works OK

I saved it. How do I change the file extension? Adobe 7.0 won't open it, claiming the format is incorrect, which is what I believe you're getting at.... changing the format from pdf to xls.

I changed the "opening program" to Excel, but I only have Excel Viewer and not the full working program. It looks great though.....nice work.

Dave63, The probelm with what you did is the next time you go to open an pdf it will try an open in excel. Simply right click the file and rename the extension from .pdf to xls. If you do not see the .pdf part of the file name, you have to change the way you view files. Here is a detalied description on how to do that.

You can download openoffice for free and have all the features of MS office from openoffice.org.
