It did have the standard Yamaha 'bazooka' (500mm) on there before, perhaps the reason someone decided to fit the spindle from the left side for convenience. Do based on your feedback it would be more advisable to insert the Spindle from the other side! Will consider swapping it round.
Taken from the manual, rear axle nut torque states 117Nm / 11.7m kg. I was tightening using a torque wrench and it didn't click, plus was giving it ALOT of force, didn't want to snap or bend something!..
As daft as it sounds it can simply be that it was fitted unwittingly by a left handed person!
I normally tap mine back in with a rubber mallet, and if i was left handed it would make natural sense to tap from the left with my controlling hand.
I get a similar scenario at work when i'm cleaning/unreeling a cable drum that's come back in from a job and i know when it's been reeled up by a left handed person because they will have reeled the cable onto the drum anti clockwise, instead of a right handed clockwise which makes things a bit cack-handed if you're the opposite. :lol
