Outside diameter = 40mm
Inside diameter = 24mm
Notch depth = 2.5mm
Notch width (male) = 13.7mm (this is average as it seemed to vary between 13.6ish to 13.75ish)
Notch width (female) = 6.5mm
Circumference = 127mm (I figured this might help to get the correct arc size on the tool)
Nut thickness = 7mm

whoooooooooooooooooa boys

I think there is some confusion

I just need to know the size of socket I need to bring to remove the nut on the top of the steering stem that holds the upper triple in place

its an hour round trip if I dont have the right size socket from bike to tool store so I dont want to waste trips thats why Im asking............

Ahh, thought you needed the ring nut size.

On the crown nut, I am seeing 27mm from flat to flat.

hehehe yeah I didnt really explain it all that thoroughly

thanks dude, I'll source said socket before I head back out.

guess I should finish painting the wheels so I can get tires mounted before I both swapping forks and swinger though........
