What size socket do you need to install the fairing caps on the vented fairings? Everything I have tired on the supplied nuts just seems to slip?

 

I just had mine off last week and I could swear they were 1/2 inch.

 

Yeah thats what I was using and it seems that the suppied nuts have 2 sides that are longer that the others. When I get to that point of almost tight the socket just spins over the nut butr I am not rounding them off?

 

The pn# is 7716 for the flanged nut, if someone with a parts manual looks in the back in the hardware listing it will say the size.

 

"06 Touring models partscatalogue 99456-06A, Page 224, PN: 7716, Flange locknut, 1/4-20 X 7/16 hex.

 

well that would be why then thank you.
