A lock nut?

Go on ebay and get one for a Banshee in this style: http://www.lsracing.com/yamaha-banshee_billet-locknut-yamaha-banshee.html

Its just a link to the lonestar site to show what the lock nut looks like. The stock lock nuts for Banshee's and Warriors are the same so that will work for both as well.

If you get one of the ones on ebay... I think its modquad who usually makes the cheaper ones (these are fine quality as well)... they are around $40

Thanks Deuce Ill have to get one..Do they come with a tool to get them on?

 

[04Warrior04]

Yeah both banshee and warrior are well over 40 lol but I'll keep looking.

 

[Deuce]

no the link was for the style you should look for... of course they are well over $40 from lonestar... hell I got a good deal on a new one from ebay and paid $70 for my lonestar banshee nut... but thats because I was silly and paid for the name.

If you have ebay, here are a few links to some nuts that are in the $40 ballpark that I was referring to.
