Rear wheel nut size?

[Locksmith]

Don't know if I've lost a socket or never had one but cant find one that fits in my garage!!!!!

What size is it, the manuals don't say.


EDIT:
27mm

found it on the FZ site Misc. Info for FZ 09 Maintenance jobs.....

We should have a page like that on here!

Deft should have as often start jobs and realise don't have correct spanner or socket sometimes doh! Lol
Large nuts and socket heads are worse, have quite a collection now think largest socket is 42mm for large nut on rear Ducati single sider wheel no use now lol!

If we do then we need to ensure that the chain slack is correctly listed to avoid damage.
The Yamaha figures are for when both the sprocket centres and swinging arm pivot are all in alignment yet the service book makes no mention of this.

Cheers TT but that's the axle bolt thread size, not the actual nut!

I've just took my rear wheel off and the quoted M18 screenshot from the manual must be wrong since it required a 27mm/1-1/16th socket to remove it.
My MT09 is a 2015 model.

M18 is the thread, not the nut.
