27mm is the correct answer, but 1-1/16" just as good.

14mm hex key on the other end.

12mm pinch bolt.

Nuts (at the caliper or at the swingarm) on the brake stay is also 12mm, 6mm hex key on the other end.

Strange how many things are the same on the FJR and the MT09. Same size socket to loosen the nut so I can adjust the chain.
Same size tires too.

This one.

Again...lb units, not metric. Won't work on a Jap bike.
