Thread pitch for RVF fork pinch bolts?

Post by Giffin101 » Tue Feb 10, 2015 1:21 am

Am I correct in thinking it's 1.25mm?

Do all the aluminium parts share this pitch?

Cheers.

Forks and brakes have odd pitches internally, but I've never seen an M8 bolt on a Honda that wasn't standard pitch (which is 1.25 for an M8). Same goes for everything else, actualy, except M10, which is normally also 1.25 on a Honda (standard pitch being 1.5). Put an M8 together with a Honda M10 and the threads should fit together perfectly.
