rear sprocket nuts

#1 PostAuthor: Redbeard » Sat Dec 07, 2013 4:11 pm

I've got a shiny new Talon sprocket and I'd like to replace the tired looking sprocket nuts, can someone confirm the thread size for me please? Also, will I need to use the retainer washer thingy's cos they look worn out too? Cheers!

Not sure what the thread size is but scrap the crappy tab washers & use some flanged self locking nuts - a much better engineered solution..
I used a set from a Suzuki GSXR1000 which were the correct thread & look so much better.

And remember, they MUST be stainless.

I'm almost certain they are M12 FINE. (M12x1.50)

Keith,

I did actually ponder with that for a few seconds.
I KNEW they were fine, but couldn't remember if they were 10 or 12mm.

Being on the boat, I couldn't "nip out" to check!!!

But I'll accept your apology anyway!!!!!!!!!! :ooops
