As a service to badweb, to hopefully prevent badwebbers having to make multiple trips to their tool purveyor like I had to, I'm here to tell you that the axle nut is 36mm. Why these simple and incredibly useful details are not in the owners OR service manual escapes me. We don't all have towering Snap-On cabinets full of every conceivable tool in our garage! It's not just EBR, to be fair, but come on, how hard would it be to include these things, especially on something which is regular maintenance, like chain adjustment. Rant over, I feel better now. Hope this helps someone :-) | ||

I sincerely recommend a set of digital calipers and all those mysteries of left out knowledge will be readily revealed. | ||

Yeah, HF has a set for 10 bucks that's within a thou or two of my Mitutoya. Plenty close enough for millimeters. Remember, calipers are a machinist's yardstick. If you want to measure accurately and precisely(two different things) use a good bow-micrometer. Z | ||

There's a little blue canvas bag that came with every Buell ever built, that had an axle nut tool in it, along with a screwdriver and a number of other roadside-helper tools. Is this not included with an EBR? Or does an EBR have a male axle nut and not a female axle? | ||

Male nut. A large male nut! | ||

It uses the same size socket as the fuel/oil filter caps as my 6.0 Powerstroke... |
