Front Sprocket Nut
 

Before I go and take my bike to bits,

Does anyone have the specification for the front Sprocket Nut ?

Not listed in the Parts or workshop manuals......

No not the size of the socket, the specification of the nut, 32mm is the outside, what about the inside ???

Round with threads.

Granted I've got an X but when I changed the C&S Kit the other week mine was very much like this too.



:laughing7:

What do you mean

No idea. Why? And if you are taking your bike apart, surely you can measure it?

So you are after the pitch & diameter of the thread?

If so why may I ask?

FWIW, I wouldn't bother with a socket - try an angle grinder!
Had a long bar (trolley jack lever) on the socket on my Ten with the rear brake locked solid........stood on bar, bounced a bit and the freakin' socket still won't budge! The nut is torqued to 85 ft-lb (12kgm)!!!! Twice the torque output of the engine.
WHY???? Suzuki's DR650/750/800 sprocket nut is held in place by a locking plate which in turn is screwed to the sprocket with 3x M10 bolts.....:017:

Air gun always works for me.
