1998 S-1 White Lightning.

I'd like to order a new nut or locknut altogether for the front axle on my S-1W.

My thread measuring tool doesn't go that big. So can anyone confirm the pitch and

I don't know if it's 25mm or 1" (.4mm difference), but maybe you should go to a good hardware store's bolt section and see what threads the bolt threads onto, if nobody can give you a sure answer.

The nut for the front axle on my 99 x1 it's 24mm metric size.

Hope helps.
Regards.

16MM x 1.50MM is the thread.

The hex of the nut itself measures 24 MM (.943) as mentioned, a 15/16" (.938) wrench will fit the nut just fine.
