Default Rear Tire Removal

I need to remove the rear wheel on my '04 FLHRCI and do not have a big enough wrench for the rear axle nut. Does anyone know off hand what size it is? I looked in the manual but it does not say. My guess is 1 7/16 but I do not want to have to buy anymore $30 wrenches than I have to.

Thanks in advance.
