Greetings!
Ref: Hannigan Gen II - 2017 GL1800 Rear Brake Brembo Calipers
I am unable to mount a 6mm socket straight onto the bottom bolt. There’s not enough clearance as I have to approach it at an angle. I could use a ball end, but with my mechanical skills (or lack thereof), I may end up damaging the head. Besides, when I have to screw it back on, it would have to be torqued ~25 ft/lbs.
My question is for the folks who have a similar setup.
Given its proximity and space constraint, what socket, procedure and/or torque wrench do you use to service your rear calipers?
Thank you in advance.

You will need a torque adaptor or a 6mm spline wrench
