[ST] Front sprocket removal



Argh! Few things frustrate me more than when I can't complete a seemingly
simple task. I went ahead and bought the 18T front sprocket and hurried home
to put it on. I take the cover off and think, "hmmm, that's a pretty big
nut". Sure enough, I don't have a wrench big enough. So I go buy myself a
12" cresent, not the best tool but it should do. Not a chance. Argh!

Is that nut regular or reverse thread? I didn't see any reason for it to be
reverse, but I've been known to be wrong. I guess it doesn't matter because
I'll just be heading to the dealer tomorrow to let them do it. I'm not gonna
go buy a socket and driver big enough for this job, because it'd be the only
job I'd use it for. Why, oh why, did Triumph think that the average Joe
would have a socket that big hanging around? Argh!
