Default wrench sizes

So I need to get some wrenches here soon, but I don't know what sizes the relative nuts are. Can any one tell me what size the rear axle nut, neck bearing nut, and fork cap sizes are? I looked in the manual for sizes but didn't see anything. Thanks all

I know the neck bearing is 1 1/2", I'd have to check on the others which would entail removing the covers...

On at least 2008 and 2009 Dynas I believe the rear axle nut is 36mm and the fork cap nut is 35mm.

Rear axle (drive side) and fork nut both appear to be 36mm. May want a socket to torque those...

Tagging in on this since I also need to get a new set. Not to hijack but if getting a Torque wrench any suggestions on size and lbs? Would be nice to only have to buy one.

I have a 1/2in drive torque wrench up to 200 ft lbs, but I would recommend a 3/8 drive so you don't have to use an adapter to go from 3/8 to 1/2. I have a friend who is a total gear head and he told be using an adapter while torque is not a good idea

36 mm on the rear axle fits the best.

This is correct. The adaptor will "absorb" some of the torque, lowering the amount of torque actually applied to the nut.

I have a 3/8" (foot pound) torque wrench and a 1/4" (inch pound) torque wrench.
