Hi Randy I got around this by getting an old socket grinding 2 flats on it and welding an old open end spanner to it works a treat and I now only have to create a new part number and I will market it as a Kit LOL

Subject: [DucatiST] Re: Wheel Bearings & Cam Belts
I went to by Glenlocks at the local hardware store and come to find out they have a 13mm head. The Duc ones have a 12mm head which I need for the special 12mm socket I use on the vertical cylinder since it is so close to the frame. I thought I was doing to save some time and money getting them at the hardware store but not to be!
