Can anyone help me with sprocket carrier nut sizes on 92-99 BLADE??

I was sure they are 12mm but i sourced some 12mm stainless nuts today and the fuckers dont fit. Are they a weird thread size? They start but then tighten up and wont budge.

I thought metric threads were standard.

Any help appreciated.

There are course and fine threads, in both metric and imperial. Where did you get the nuts from?
Take a 12mm from somewhere else on the bike and try that, it should fit, then take it along when you get replacements. Thread gsuges are cheap and handy for back yarders, get yourslef one.

its probably a fine thread. 12mm has a standard 1.25 and a 1.75 threads per mm. Most places carry course and you will have to ask for fine thread.
