I've ordered 2 new nuts from Fowlers from just in case I do trash one by overtorquing it.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Hard to say, although when I came to change my DRZ front sprocket I reckon it could have done without the nut altogetherh and not budged.
As the shaft is case hardened its more than likely just damaged the threads in the 'soft' nut.
I afraid its a case of suck it and see.
