Title: Fork caliper bolt sizes.
Post by: Spanner1972 on June 29, 2015, 05:49:36 PM

I've tried every bolt I have here as the forks didn't come with bolts and nothing fits. What size are the gents. Cheers.

I think they are metric fine which you will find dificult to sourch and may have to get the genuine bits

They're probably M6 but maybe M8.  Perhaps the threads are corroded and need cleaning up with a tap.

BTW I've reinstated the airbox on the Katana so you can have those air filters if you want them.  If not I'll bin them.

Just to be certain exactly which bolts for what bike are you on about?

Cheers gents, the pitch I meant. Sorry been flat out in work and realised it was a bit of a misleading question.

Yes Mike, I'll have them mate. Nice one. We'll have to sort something out about getting them.
