The two on the right are M10 x 40mm. The left front is the same but the left rear is M10 x 50mm. I can't remember if they're fine pitch or not.

But you'll find that the Japs don't think like that. Some bolts may be 1.25mm pitch but others may be 1mm pitch.
Conventional wisdom says to know your limits. To know your limits you need to find them first. Finding your limits generally involves getting in over your head and hoping you live long enough to benefit from the experience. That's the fun part.

The Honda Common service manual is useful it has all of the pitches for different types of bolts they use on bikes.. obviously there are some exceptions and these are docuemented too.

Might not give you the exact answers for everything but worth having if you don't already have
