I have cheap ones for that but have the same welding scars on them! My good mole grips are only used for rounding off bolts making them truly impossible to remove.Mine have special bits on to remind me how many times I've managed to weld them to the job by mistake.
You'll be disappointed if you buy a Royal Enfield to go with your AF sockets. Old British bikes were all BSW/BSF not UNF/UNC which is or was, known in the trade as 'AF' (across the flats), "pass me a 1/2" AF", or "pass me a 1/2" Yank", UN being an American standard and was common on most British cars during the sixties until they went Metric in the seventies. There were however some exceptions such as Land Rovers which as has already been stated, tended to a mixture of different standards, presumably until old stocks ran out... Morris 1000s also had BS fittings. Metric spanners are also measured and named for their 'across the flats' dimensions like UN.
Never was there a better excuse to buy a Harley...
