The holes on the swing arm (zxr400 L1) for my bobbins to fit into are mashed up. i re-tapped them with a m12x1.75 but the bobbin wouldnt fit :smt013
What is the thread and increment size on the swing arm bobbin bit. m12x1.5? gotta buy helcoils.
cheers

Re: Bobbin Thread Size?
Bobbins are M12 1.25 but if you have already tapped at 1.75 then probably cheaper to source an M12 1.75 bolt than helicoilng
