What size is the nut holding the gearbox sprocket on? I measured 36mm but would like to know for sure before I buy. Why can't triumph use 32mm like everybody else? I have a nice impact quality one of those! Cold chisel just chopped off 1 corner of the nut!

Doesn't leave me much time as I'm heading for the Alps next Tuesday... Thanks in anticipation, Steve.

Just did mine with a large crecent wrench.  But yes, I think it is 36mm.

agree with above, I used a length of tube on the end of the ratchet and got a mate to stand on the back break, donÌt thing hitting it with a cold chisel is a very good idea.



Im also sure its 36mm
