It was my bike that DaveHuge referred to earlier. The nut wasn't too tight but tight anyway when I opened it (felt like 40 Nm). The Flywheel had a spur in the recess for the Woodruff key, which I had to remove to make it fit better on the cone. Don't know if it was there in the beginning or if it was induced after the Woodruff key had been broken.
40 Nm felt low when I compared it to the 100 Nm of my 125 Husky, but I guess the torque is also depending on the angle of the cone. Used the 40 Nm as manual stated, no problems so far.
