Auto Zone carries a thin wall 27 mm socket that works well, can't remember their brand name of tools.

Went to Autozone today, the brand I was thinking of was DuraLast.  The 27mm is $8.  The wall on my Craftman socket is to thick to fit inside the guard around the nut.  Autozone also has large allens for the front axle.

Ahh, another good excuse to buy aftermarket mufflers!

I have Cobra Mufflers on my Connie. Put em' on both the Connies I've had.
So, I had forgotten getting the axle out "was" a problem.

Ride safe, Ted
