- I just purchased two 90 Gear Nepros ratchet handles:
1/4" Ratchet Handle: NBR290
3/8" Ratchet Handle: NBR390
Nepros is the high end tool brand made by Kyoto Tool Company (KTC) in Japan
Your toolbox is my reference before any tool I'm buying, most of the time the tools you're buying are too expensive for what I'm doing but they're still in my wishlist haha.
since i saw this video my 1/4 ratchet went from 2. to 11 pcs. now i want nepros. maybe in december
Man jewelry. I've been updating my tools the last 18 months. Started with German tools then switched to Japanese. No Nepros yet, but I have some KTC and some Vessel and other various Japanese brands. Japanese tools are very nice. I may add some Koken sockets at some point.
Stunning Tools but wow I just looked up the price! Also agree that if 1 tool last a lifetime it's a good deal! Thanks
The “Snap-On” brand has proven to be of high quality and has passed the test of time over two decades.
Kyoto Tool Company was founded in 1950 so does have a long history of tool manufacture. The NEPROS mirror finish brand launched in 1995. Many people says NEPROS finish and quality exceeds Snap-On, but I don't own any Snap-On tools so have no reference to compare to. Either way, the NEPROS handle wrenches seem very nicely made and finished to me.

My reference to two decades only refers to how far back I believe I’ve been using my various Snap-On tools. They were originally my Dad’s who used them professionally as an aviation airframe and power plant mechanic. They just keep on working as expected.
Looked it up just now: established in 1920 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin
My experience with high quality tools is similar. They cost more, but often last a lifetime. Conversely cheap tools sometimes don't even last one use...
First time using snap on from my senior and the feel is so different from my cheap tools. Guess KTC is the Snap On of Japan. Love both brand.
Morning mate you sound like you’re based in the UK. Where do you buy your nepros tools from?
Impresive tools ✨🔧
Do you lose any significant range of operation going from 108 gear to 90?
The 90 tooth gear results in a minimum of 4 degrees of handle movement required to engage the next tooth. 108 tooth gear result in 3.333 degrees. So yes, there is a difference, but for my use on motorcycles I don't foresee an issue.
Pair it with some Koken sockets and you're in business
Hello, guys, a few days ago I dropped my motorcycle, and as a result the return cable broke. From that day on, the motorcycle accelerates for a few seconds after I have stopped turning my wrist. Does anyone know what can it be ? It's a ktm 250 exc-f 2005
Did you fix the throttle return cable after if broke? If not I'd suggest fixing it.
@@TokyoOffroad yes i did It
@@TokyoOffroadEven with this, the problem continues
Did you adjust the throttle free play after installing the new throttle cable? With the bike not running, open the throttle then release it. Can you hear the slide in the carb close instantly as soon as you release the throttle?
@@TokyoOffroad yes
I HAVE A GREAT IDEA (because I'm not a tool fan) I'm a cheap tool fan , so next time post about 10 minutes of random riding at the end of the tool review :D to keep the trolls happy :D make the video
LOL
why is 90 gear a big deal? i have a $2 Stanley garbage ratchet
The gear tooth count determines what angle you need to move the ratchet handle before you can engage the next tooth. 90 tooth gear means you need to turn the handle a minimum of 4 degrees before you can engage the next tooth. A 36 tooth gear means a minimum of 10 degrees. This can sometimes create clearance issues when working in tight spaces as you might not be able to turn the handle far enough to engage the next tooth.
@@TokyoOffroad thanks for the explanation. your'e like the father i never had lol
I've had my eye on the 3/8 nepros stubby ratchet for a while. Might break down and buy it fairly soon.
That doesn't fit in your hand, that's engulfed by your hand! Looks nice though, I use Bahco, because I'm cheap! R.B.
I do have quite big hands, but even so this size of 1/4 ratchet handle (125mm, 5") feels good when using it and lessens the chance of over torquing fasteners. Bahco tools aren't that common in Japan and as such tend to be expensive. A 3/8" ratchet handle (#7750RN) is almost that same price as the 3/8" Nepros ratchet handle in the video.
