Rear axle nut size.
Does anyone know the size of the rear axle nut on the 1700s? I wanted to adjust final belt tension last week and discovered I'll never get a socket wrench on it without taking the muffler off, so I need to get a rear axle nut wrench.

I think it is a 22mm but I will check when I get home. I was able to remove it by lifting the bike until the nut was between the muffler and the frame. Torque spec is 80 ft. lbs.

The head on the axle is 22mm, the nut takes a 27mm wrench.
