Hey

I got some 10mm sprocket bolts, but dont look like they fit, I haven't tried them yet as it looks a pain to actually get off, anyone know the proper size of em?

my old man seems to think the bolts are 14mm? but pro-bolts only sell 10-12mm.

The bolts are studs: 10x24mm and the nuts are 10mm. I have no idea about the pitch.

Nice 1, soz I meant sprocket bolt nuts, so it will fit?

I think the thread is 8mm and the nut is 10mm.

I replaced mine with some alan key bolts. Rub some lock tight on them and nip them up. Looks good and they will never strip or break...

I meant pitch, not threading, my mistake.

Also, the bolts used to secure the sprocket are stud bolts - have threads at either end, double enders.

Sorry about that, I should read better next time. I thought you were talking about the front sprocket...

 

[Abc123]

I was guess it was the rear. He may be on about the front

You mentioned allen keys

you not getting confused with the brake discs?

 

[Guest]

ok I'm confused even more now,

soz

Im talking about the rear sprocket (for now) anyway, I've been comparing my new 10mm anoidised rear sprocket bolts to the ones already on there, and it looks bigger? to actually get the dam bolts off to see, i've got to take the rear wheel off, right?

Spose you could take one out to inspect it, as long as you remember to put it back before you ride off.

I was just saying that i put two allan key bolts on the front sprocket. It's better than the standard ones....

What?! The sprocket bolts dont take allen keys! Its the brake discs that take allen keys. The sprocket bolts are hex heads!

Look at the diagram I posted. Its from the Honda Parts manual.

Yeh its definitely a hex bolt, I couldn't be bothered to take it off to see the exact difference between to two, but I did try using a few different spanners to see which one would fit, and guess what - a 17mm spanner fitted fine.
