Have you tried a store that specializes in fasteners, up here we have a store that is called Tacoma screw. I have found left handed nuts there before. Maybe you have something like this were you are. If you like and you can not find something locally, let me know just what you need and I will go get it for you and send it to you.

Thom Green,I own and ride a 76 250 MC5 MX which I bought new.

I'll check it out Thom, thanks. by the way this 85 mx seems technically advanced for its time. (inverted forks,disc brakes,etc.) does this hold true for your 76?

Darrell,

You should be able to get that nut from your local KTM dealer or from Al Buehner 216-651-6559.  Al is a great supporter & supplier to this site.

Darrell,

You can also order the part through KTM Talk at     http://www.ktmtalk.com/.

It will be delivered through their network of KTM dealers & shipped to you.

Barry Higgins will do the same thing.

Al Buehner will also ship directly to you.

Tony
