There is nothing wrong with tightening screws with a torque wrench if done correctly.
It depends on the material of the screw and the material of the counterpart into which the screw is screwed. Most of the time, the torques are given in tables for steel, whereby one must of course distinguish between the information for the different grades (5.4, 8.8, 10.6, 12.8 etc.). Different numbers apply to stainless steel - and of course all the more to aluminum alloys, and you also have to distinguish between coarse and fine threads. So if you tighten screws in aluminum with torque values for steel, you shouldn't be surprised what happens. At Royal Enfield, because of the poor quality of the cast aluminum, I would also reduce the special values for aluminum again. So the problem is not generally in the use of a torque wrench, but in the wrong use in combination with inferior material from the motor housing. The problem is not the torque wrench, but what is in front of it.
By the way: Some screws on the C5 are labeled 8.8, but I have already torn off one with a torque that is specified for screws with the designation 5.4. Obviously, Royal Enfield doesn't take it too seriously when it comes to screw quality either, which fits in well with the overall picture.
About my lost oil drain plug: The motorcycle was in a specialist workshop for an engine overhaul, where the oil was also changed. Two days later I lost the oil drain plug. The use of a torque wrench (in this specialist workshop!) Would have prevented another engine overhaul.
