@CalNub - the DRZ uses a 24mm axle nut. I have a jack you could use and a tube. I might be able to swing by with them later today.

Stroked- check your freeway wobble again (gradually)...if may have been fixed with aligning the rear tire

It still wobbles but not until a little higher speed.

This might be a longshot, but is your speedo properly installed? I also had a vicious speed wobble over 60 and did a lot of research trying to resolve it. I came across this thread on Thumpertalk. The misaligned speedo wasn't the cause of my problem*, but it might be worth checking out.

I've used both the 606 and Trailwings on my DRZ400 on the freeway and have had no problems once the geometry issue was resolved.

* My problem was Lowering Link + Soft Suspension + Rear Packs = Super Unhappy Front End
