You are correct in that transaction charges are vatable. Not an issue if you are VAT registered (as we are) but another hit if you’re not.

We never took Amex (even in the days of slide-over card impression machines) as the fees were exorbitant.

I am definitely no accountant but... 

The total card commission over a period (net) is then +vat? They are charging Vat on a service as such.

What I mean Steve is if we take £1000, we pay card charges on all that at point of sale. Then come Vat time, we give the inland Revenue the vat content on the £1000, about £150, against which we have paid the credit card company 1-2% already. Yes we get the added vat content on that charge back but that's it. We are paying a charge against money we are simply handling for Revenue.

Having the nut as per the photo means you can slide the axle out without having to disturb the exhaust.

It makes sense to have the nut next to the sprocket as that is where the greatest force will be trying to displace the wheel from centre.

You are not alone my 400 has the nut on the left hand side.

In the Honda Parts List it is shown with the nut on the left hand side.
Might be it's been shifted to the right side so the silencer is not in the way.

Looking at some of the photos I noted the rear axle nut seemed to be on back to front, which in turn can only mean the axle is too, so I checked on the CMSL diagram, but no, it is ME that has it on back to front!  ( see image) ding dong...was it me that started this or a mechanic in the past? Thing is....does it actually matter?
