There might be resources in the UK too, I get my bolts and nuts from them:

bolts, nuts, ...

Here are the nut spec's where you can compare to your needs.

spec's

Try this ressource in the UK ???:

nuts shop

They look at least like castle nuts, but

- no information of the strength of the used steel,

(you get nuts in strength from 4.6, 5.6, 8.8, 10.9 and 12.9, you need at least 8.8)

- no good information about the threads, (should be a fine thread! (Feingewinde Typ M)).

Are you sure its got the right spindle fitted Chris ????? Bultaco UK know whats what . I think Chris your lacking a lot of knowledge in a lot of area's , and need someone locally to guide you through basic bike maintenance , but its only my opinion ....Keep drinking the stella's Chris

Even if the diameter of the nut thread matches to the thread of the axle. The thread pitch or lead has to match too. And it is not easy to determine the thread of a nut without a thread gauge. May be Bondy should call them (Bultaco UK) up and tell them his problem, may be he got the wrong nut and he can exchange the nut against one that fit.

To the "ping-ping noise" the frequency of the pings are linked to the rpm?

While assembling my the engine I replaced the flywheel weight on the clutch side

and mounted a lighter one. The lighter flywheel was NOS. The sprocket had some edges

so the primary chain did not fit well first. After grinding the adgesaway the chain

runs free and without any snappy noise while turning from hand.

Did you probably replaced your flywheel weight too? I would also take the clutch cover

off and take a deep second look. Would also turn the the engine by nad without plug to

see if there is no issue with the primary drive, very curios this "ping-ping noise"???

I would take the spindle to an Ironmonger and ask them to match a nut to fit.

Most of them will give you the nut (up here anyway)

Ironmonger? Whats that? Think we forget how useful these guys were but all we have for miles here is B & Q!

hi i didnt change the fly wheel weight. the only thing i did chang was the old metel clutch plats for new fiber ones. the bike was runing ok when i firt got it a year ago. im hoping its nothing major just somthing simpel fingers crossed. ill have to take the clutch case off to have a good look. bultaco uk said it could just be the clutch plats its probely only had an hours run since i finished the rebuild. and allso it dosent make the noise when i pull the clutch in
