hi guys,

I am trying to loosen the axel on my front wheel (zxr400 H1) but it looks like i need a really large Hex wrench??

Do anyone know what size in mm it is? So i can order the right size hex wrench.

Cheers fella's.

Not sure of the size off hand, but you get sets of bigger sockets which will include the ones you need (something like this). Hold pressure on one side and undo the other at the same time (otherwise you might break the speedo casing).
Remember to first loosen the axel clinch bolts. Don't need to take them out, just loosen them.

You can cheat by leaving the pinch bolts on the opposite side tight. That will keep it in place while you turn the other side

You should be ok with the speedo drive as that locates in between a couple of slots on the fork bottom.

Both sides are different sizes, one is 14mm, i forget the other side. But a 14mm should see you through no problem without the other side if you follow what ive just said.
