Putting on Yoyodyne slipper clutch today. I was concerned that my 32mm socket wasn't really a snug fit to the Yoyodyne shaft nut (approx 150 lb/ft torque needed).
I found that my 1.25 inch socket was a much better fit. All is well.
Admittedly a small bit of info, but useful I hope.

Regarding my above post. Just read that the Yoyodyne nut is 30mm not 32 like stock nut.  FWIW, if you don't have a 30mm socket, the 1.25" still worked for me and didn't round the nut at all. YMMV. Also just read that "some" of the Ducati torque specs are with various lubricants and some aren't. No flaming please, I'm such a noob.
