Re: Upgrading your rear axle nut.
Nice! I like this kind of mod that cleans up the bike and simplifies service work.
Do you have a supplier in the US?

Re: Upgrading your rear axle nut.
Easy enough, order the rear axle nut and the tool kit box wrench (27mm) for the 1993 Honda CBR900RR. Both items should cost you under $20.00

Re: Upgrading your rear axle nut.
To answer a question Evans Ward posed, cut the rear axle through the split pin holes then grind the end flush so the hole remnants just disappear. Also grind a slight taper around the edge so the threads are not sharp.

Re: Upgrading your rear axle nut.
Cool mod. Do you know if the thread is the same on the gt380?

Re: Upgrading your rear axle nut.
I believe the 380 axle is a smaller diameter.

Re: Upgrading your rear axle nut.
Ah I see. I shall have to do some homework to find out what smaller modern bike shares the same thread as the GT380.Suzsmokeyallan wrote:I believe the 380 axle is a smaller diameter.

Re: Upgrading your rear axle nut.
Possibly one from an Early CBR600, you need to look around for the fujilock flange nut that will fit. Have a look at Kawasaki as well.

This mod does make it easier to pull the rear wheel assy. Nice!
