[ST] Suggestion to Add Technical Data to Web Site

["R. Hartwick" <hartwick@xxxxxxx>]

Bill,

The front sprocket nut is a 36 mm.  Torque is 132 NM.  ( Bill, Sorry I initally gave you the rear nut size, rather than the front sprocket when I first responded).  I bought mine at a local auto supply place, or Sears stocks them as well.

Now I have my own question to add to the list.  I bought the Triumph rear axle socket, which does not have the size stamped on it.  I measure it as being 47 mm, but it could be 46 mm - it is kind of in the middle of the lines on the tape.  Which is it?

Finally, I would like to make a suggestion.  Wouldn't it be nice if the main ST web site contained a technical data section, where common things like these nut sizes and torques could be maintained?  We don't need the entire service manual, but often used numbers such as these would be a great convenience to just look up on the site.  Anyone else agree with this idea?
