Does anybody know where I can get a Rear Axle Castle Nut for my Gen II?
Any Suzuki dealer
Ya really dont need a casle nut for a GENII. It uses a" lock nut" .Its kinda like a Nylock nut,just the way the threads are designed. Just for some added insurance I use some blue locktite and torque to 73 ftlb and let'er ride like that. I ride street and drag race it and its never come loose.
yeppers... positive retention device I think NHRA calls it? how many axles you seen fly off bikes btw?Some organizations require some sort of "additional" visible locking device other than just the lock nut.

I trust that he has one for the Gen II, didn't see one right off hand...but gotta say, $25 + $11 shipping sounds just a tad on the steep side of the price range~!~
Maybe the chrome is worth the extra weight in shipping
It might get a little rashed up, but that would be the least of your concerns.....Could the axle be damaged if it fell out at speed?
Better price with free shipping!

hey John, what is the torque spec on this before I twist it on?
