Cheers. I've just bought 3 other large sizes for my workshop for bicycle cassette jobs though, so trying to not spend more on tools at the moment. It's all adding up, with the castellated locknut tool, Abba swingarm removal adaptors, new socket for sprocket etc.
Doing the usual quick cheap easy job and it's getting complicated and expensive!

I've worked out that my spark plug socket reversed and used on an extension (with the rubber sleeve removed from the inside) has flats on the outside that fit perfectly. So, swingarm pivot is now out!
