Most Suzuks rear axle nuts need 100 nm torque, that's bloody tight. God knows which gorilla would've stripped the nut last time.

actually that's only 75ft/lbs, which isn't that tight considering the application.

useless fact #745.......from memory the jesus nut on the rotorhead of an iroquois is 350ft/lbs....

Can't the existing axle be rethreaded and another nut used in the meantime? A good competent engineer/machinist would sort it out in a nano second or two.
Titanium wheel spindles and nuts are available here- http://www.beanos-nuts.co.uk/hayabusa_zone.html

Like any tool- it's HOW you use it. They come in fuck'n handy on a/c when socket sets and spanners are'nt available.

Sucks what happened, especially with the good summer weather coming up.

Danny and Dave are good guys, John is too when he's not in one of his moods, I usually deal with Paul and John is a scary nut. Josh is a regular comedian too.

Been shopping there for nearly a year and always have got great service.
