Example: Ace hardware Craftsman 28mm, 1/2" 12 pt.

Or, check Lowe's, Home Depot, Sears, online shop or ride there :P

HEADS UP! Black Friday Sales! Now till next Friday (I believe)
I stopped in at Sears last night and picked up two heavy-gauge S.S. Magnetic Bowls @ $5.99 each and other goodies. Worth the trip 8)

The 300 FORZA has a 30mm clutch nut (threads), BUT NEEDS A 41 mm SOCKET to remove it.
Same principle applies to the PCX's 28mm (threads) nut.

39mm head? (I measured my Forza's with a caliper, and found that 1-5/8" was right, and available)

If 39mm, use 1-1/2"---and be wary of that SPRING, there...

Sorry, got some editing 'problem'...

My point : I have checked with my 2014 Metropolitan, which also has that 28mm-threads nut. It
needs a 39mm socket to be removed. The PCX is probably similarly arranged.

so I need a 39mm not 28?

My bet. 28mm applies to the nut's threads only.

Like, 6mm nuts have M6x1 threads, but are typically loosened using a 10mm wrench/socket.
To be sure, just remove the clutch drum and mesure that nut's head: probably 39mm, a size very
common there.
