Screw my Bike?

Post by davamb » Thu Jun 04, 2009 4:22 am

Errr yeah. The threaded holes at the rear of the swingarm - just perfect for clipping the race stand onto if I could get some bolts that fit. The thread is 10mm, but the pitch???? Standard pitch for M10 seems to be 1.5mm, which is too coarse. I need what? 1.25 or 1.0mm? Anyone know?
Ride Well!
Cheers, Dave.

It`ll `likely` be standard metric fine Dave M10 x 1.25.
You might find this useful(and anyone else for that matter):

M10 x 1.0 does exist but it`s pretty uncommon.
Here`s some listings for the less usual fine pitches anyway: :wink:

Yep, 1.25mm pitch it is thanks Mincehead. Grabbed a couple from the local bolt bloke and they're perfect.
Ride Well!
Cheers, Dave.

....or go dodgy.....two washers and a 10mm long spacer. I must get something to replace that lot.

I bought one but I haven't made my mind up yet. Couldn't get my hand to sit right, but maybe a different pair of gloves could work better. Haven't used it for a little while now.

That's all they do in the work shop if you haven't got bobbins on already.
