which thread

[Big R]

I’ve bought indicators from a Suzuki Bandit as alternatives to the front ones supplied by the factory.  I’d assumed they would come with lock nuts, but I was wrong.  I thought it looked like a M10 thread, but it isn’t.  Any ideas what thread Japanese motorbike manufacturers use?

My well be M10 but standard M10 has a 1.5mm thread pitch and a lot of Jap stuff has a 1.25 thread pitch.

Hi Matt

is the M10x1.25 defined as "metric fine" ?
