Wanted to swap rear sprocket nuts for nicer ones but the pit bull stand i have for my SSS monster doesn't allow for sprocket/chain work b/c it attaches to the rear wheel from the side of the sprocket.  Can I remove sprocket nuts while the bike is on the stand that I have?  Anyone know where i can get some black nuts (no pun intended)?

yes you can. the wheel stays on. the nut comes off.

i mean to say as logn as you dont take the rear off, your fine. just leave your bike on the side stand.

Thats what i thought; thank you  ;D

I just have a hard time w/ that desmorodos website.  How do you guys order from it?  You just translate it or what ?  I'll be sure and check out ebay; thats a good idea too.

Yes, read the eBay listing.  It states that the nuts are from Pro-Bolt.   :)

BTW, Pro-Bolt USA is run by David Cork at streetfightersbydesign.com.  He's a good guy, and I've purchased from him, but expect to wait a while for your items.  They come from England to California, and then out to you.  At least two weeks if you're on the east coast.  Before the USA site was up, I ordered from Pro-Bolt directly and got items in 10 or fewer days.  :P

I recently ordered a couple things, it seems that they are stocking some stuff in the U.S. now, my order has shipped already, minus the Pro-Gauge i ordered, which is backordered 7-10 days, probably cause it's coming from the UK... [thumbsup]

They are 15mm on the S2R 800.
I'm confused... So what size are they on the S4Rs?
