Also low ohms resistance measurement capability for checking coils etc. (e.g. Honda ignition coil primaries typically around 5 Ohms).

The Screwfix one is the LAP MAS830B and these are the details of  DC Voltage, DC Current and Resistance ranges from the manual.

EDIT:  It would have been nice if I had actually included the details. 🙈

Here they are:

Is this one OK for most motorcycles including the SOHC?

Bryanj:
That should be fine, what you do most is check where a wire goes, resistance, and voltage at certain points in the loom dc volts. AC volts is ocasional usefull for generator output but not often.

Thanks a lot. Sure I'll get there in the end!
