You'd have thought that a 2019 Classic would be all metric by now (well I would)
Not so. I just found out the rear suspension mounting bolts are 3/8 BSF.
Are RE STILL using up old stock??

Do they still have 3 sneaky M7 nuts on the alternator stator? That nearly precipitated a tantrum from me one weekend.

My 2000 Bullet had a lot of spanners which didn`t fit anything on the bike; I replaced them with metric from my own toolkit.

My outer rear axle nut on my 2018 classic is a 15/16 inch spanner, the supposed 24mm spanner is way to loose and when i measured the nut on a micrometer it came up at 23.92mm
