    What size is my nut?

    What size is the nut that holds the sprocket on the transmission?

    Not sure if that nut's part number follows the pattern of other hardware on the bike, but the number is 09159-20004. On other hardware, if you look after the dash, the "20" would indicate that it is an M20.

        I haven't pulled the cover yet but wanted to try putting on a smaller sprocket this weekend and needed to be sure I had the right size socket.

          Shift lever and five bolts. Don't take no time to check.

            May have to remove the left footpeg too. I remove the front bolt, loosen the back one, and swivel the footpeg back out of the way.

              Not on an 82/83....pretty sure. I have one.

                i dont have anything newer than 1979. I gotta move the peg on anything i have to get the cover off. This is the basis of the thought in my reply.

                    OK, now you're asking a different question.

                    It probably takes a 32mm socket, but the threads fit an M20 bolt.

                      Thanks guys I'll check to see if I've got a 32mm socket, if not I'll use it as an excuse to go to harbor freight.

                        Or, Lowe's
                        They have Craftsman sockets, generally in stock on big sizes for reasonable cost.

                          A 1-1/4" will also work.
