Default Why do they skip sizes of metric combo wrenches?

On Toyotas the 11 and 13 and 18 were not required - on American iron

I've found the 10 popping up in the strangest places. Even Harley throws
a couple in to keep you guessing. I've got some of the less popular
large sizes for axle nuts on the bikes.

Harley uses some Japanese (or other Pacific Rim) sourced parts that
WILL have 10mm heads on 6mm bolts.


WHAT? The all American made motorcycle? I'm shocked!
