400 EX Rear axle nut.

The axcel nut on my 99 400 EX has to be checked and usually retigtened before every ride. Any suggestions as to a cheap easy fix...

Get it really tight and then wrap it with electrical tape. You only need to cover the 2 nuts together. If wrapped tight enough it will usually hold. I have also used loc-tite, but tape seems better.
