[QUOTE="Rich Rohrich, post: 707128, member: 16241"] It's a tool to help with wheel changes. It's OD is smaller than a standard axle and the end is tapered. Usually people have a tough time lining up the spacers and brake caliper on a rear wheel and then sliding the axle in. So this tools is designed to be slid in in place of the axle in the opposite direction. Because it's smaller and tapered it allows for mis-alingment of the various bits and pieces and helps hold then in line. Once the tool is slid inplace you can wiggle the chain back over the sprocket with the tool holding the spacers and caliper. Then you can just put the axle againe the small end of the tool and use it to push the tool back out. The spacers will stay lined up and the axle will shoot right through, popping the tool out the other side. The grip tape on the is jjust to make it easier to handle if your hands are oily. It can also be used to sand the corrosion off the axle while it is out. I've found it to be a really helpful tool that is always in my toolbox. Once you use it once it will all make more sense. The length and OD of the tool is best guess (I didn't have a KTM handy to measure). If it's not the right size let me know and I'll make up a new one for you. I hope you find it useful. :thumb: [/QUOTE]
