Tool search
Does anyone know of a two into one socket or wrench that fits the 46mm rear and 28mm front? Thanks in advance.

Why not just get 2 sockets?

Some of the vendor here have those 2 in 1, but I think they are just for te rear (42/46), also, ebay have some of those

The reason for my madness is if I want to take a trip I would like to have that combination with me in the event I need to change a tire. My guess is that combo is not in most tool boxes.

i re-read your post... so I don't have a lead for that type of socket...
Maybe contact the guys at fastbikesusa.com - they say they make their own stuff and they sell a 2 sided socket- maybe they would whip one up for you.

What bike are you riding? On a Hyper you don't need to undo the axle to adjust the chain, single sided swingarm and all. Get a mech to show you 1st time.

I've been tearing down motorcycles for over 20 years, just never one with a single sided swingarm... Just got the service manual so I guess i'll have to check that out. I just figured the axle nuts would have to be loosened in addition to the pinch bolts.
Still want the socket though for other maintenance though.

the owners manual tells you to go to a dealer to get the chain tensioned!!!!!
The (ebay) workshop manual ( which looks genuine) then tells you to have about 10-15mm MORE slack than the owners manual ( there is a thread on this).
Good luck!On mine I'll either have a thrown chain or the gearbox will be destroyed! What a choice
