Don't toss any old axles! was created by Breaker19
I tore down my last of two Yamaha Seca 900 carcass a few weeks ago (used for a resto a couple years ago) and sold/scrapped the resulting parts, but I saved the hardware and axles. Good thing, the axle bolt head for the rear wheel was 22mm, exactly the right size for making a KZ fork tool. I welded the rear axle with the bolt head to one side of a shorter piece of pipe and welded the front axle on the other end. Plenty of length, worked perfectly, I just did the forks on mine. Just wanted to throw that out there.
