24mm is a more standard rear axle nut size.

I know the feeling, bloody Suzuki use a 36mm nut on the rear wheel! No one I know has a 36mm spanner or socket, so I had to get one off eBay.

It's more likely a 24mm than a 25mm. I have never, ever needed to use a 25mm socket. It won't be an imperial nut, not on a European bike.

Measure it with a vernier caliper, then go to local engineering supplies give them size and they will swap ££ for a suitably sized socket/spanner.
