I am going to convert my bike to a spin on oil filter.
The ideal part is a M20 x 1.5 adaptor as fitted to R1's but as Yamaha want $85 and none in Au I am looking at alternatives.

Basically I need about 50mm of M20x1.5 threaded hollow steel.
Ideally it needs a nut half way along.....Any suggestions ?

A die would cost more than Yam want so thats a non starter.
Iceman is lined up for the adaptor plate...just need the bolt.
What about you Weasel...interested....I could have him make 2 ??

Just get Iceman to turn the thread onto some tool steel and put a hole through it.. simple then got to a bolt place a buy a nut..
