I am Desperately in need of help/advice

How the F**K do I get the wheel nut off my M1200s? I did it a few years ago after some struggling and did it up as tight as I could but it was below what Ducati recommend.
But now I have a puncture and cannot remove the wheel nut, I have sloshed it down with penetrating oil, I have used a 350nm air gun on it and I have used a 5' breaker bar on it and the bugger wont budge. I have tried a truck tyre centre but they wont even try, they recon their air tools will just strip the threads. My local dealer isn't much help beyond telling me it's on very tight.
Does anyone here know what I can try next, the suns out and the roads are dry so I want to make the most of it.
