Hi guys, this is the first time I'm posting something. Would someone be able to answer my query?
I have Kawasaki zx6r 2019 model.

What's the size of the Kawasaki 636 2019 handlebar main bolt/screw?
Here's a picture for reference.

Triple-clamp Crown Nut. Looks like 36mm, but I don't own a '19, so don't take that as fact. It doesn't have a lot of torque on it, a large adjustable should work if you can't find a socket, but be careful with an adjustable, use a rag between the tool and the nut and be sure the adjustable is tight.

When I say 'adjustable', I mean 'Crescent' with the thumbwheel to open/widen or tighten/close. NOT 'channel locks' or 'Vice-Grips'.

Thank you bro for the reply! I checked with a local mechanic and it is 36mm indeed.
I have an after-market Ohlins steering damper installed that's why every time I have to clean the air filter I have to take the damper off to lift up the tank. I have to either take off this crown nut or use the L key to dissemble the damper itself to have access to the tank opening. I think I'll use the latter approach this time because I don't want the main nut to get marks on it.

B)..... it is not, nor does it have anything to do with the fucking handlebars............

C)...... use a 6 point 36mm socket and no marring occurs...........

D)...... I hope this response atleast satisfies a few..............none too assholish, but a little assholish-- a soft version...forgive me I am just coming back from a month away......

Lol 👍. You mean you never call a big ass nut a screw? 🤣😂. That cracked me up tho. Least ya dint tell him how pointless it is to even have a dampener anyways.

Some dudes don’t know the difference in nuts screws and bolts. We have reach that era of mankind my grandpa use to warn me about.
