I have a 2004-ish 350 bullet, 4 speed, kick start, just a little question.

I am aware, or I am led to believe that some threads are left handed, can someone confirm:

Is the alternator nut left handed? I read it was, just checking.
Are any external engine nuts left hand thread?

Many thanks.

John

Hi, timing side crankshaft nut and gearbox mainshaft nut are both left hand thread. Alternator nut and clutch nut right hand. Vince

Thanks for that Vince, I’m sure I read the alternator nut was left hand, but happy to listen to someone on the forum.
I think it was an old magazine I read it in.
