Battery terminal nut

Hi,

Like a pillock i've managed to lose the rectangular nut from one of the battery terminals on my girlfriends NSR125 (2003). Are these readily available from a garage or do they have to be ordered?

Thanks

Mark

You should be able to use a standard nut, think a fairly standard size should be ok.

Worst case an angle grider should sort it Smile

As above.↑↑↑

If you really want a square one, they do them for woodwork, the thread is the same. You might need to file a little off the sides to make it fit. 10p a dozen in my local hardware store.

If those nuts wont fit in cut a bit off your bolt put it in upside down and put the not on the top instead of in the square bit.
