The Suzuki Manual on page 2-4 refers to the cylinder head nuts as being 9 mm and 8 mm.  Mine are 14 mm and 12 mm.  It is a 1986 any suggestions on why the difference?  Thanks.

The size referred to in the books is the size (diameter) of the bolt itself, not the size wrench needed to turn it. The wrench size is bigger.
