Dave,

Check with a Triumph or a Honda dealer.  They should have them or should be able to order one.  (The Honda Hawk uses the same size rear nut.)  The one a buddy got through the local Triumph dealer was the only one he could find with a 1/2" drive all the others were 3/4".

Let us know where you finally get one.

George
