right hand side with fi cage.What size is this bolt?Mine is bent and stripped

 

its just whatever nut fits on a 10mm bolt, its a lock nut.
BUT are you sure its the bolt thats stripped and not a broken motor mount?

 

my right side motor mount tab thing broke off and the nut just spins unless held in place

 

naw cause i stuck my hand back there and the bolts is spinning through the nut.gonna get a bolt for now untill I get the dough to get a SI cage.

 

Bet you $20 your nut is stripped not the bolt Ive stripped about 5 of those nuts and never stripped the OEM bolt......Shitty deal is I can only find those 10mm thread with 14mm head nuts from Kawi.....So I order like 5 and keep them in stock......

 

yep its the nut for sure.I just phrased it wrong

 

The one time I needed one and couldnt find one I found a 10mmx1.25 nut with a 14mm head but it had a flange....So I ground off the flange so it could fit in the slot(14mm) in the head.....You have to grind the flange down on all the sides till its just a 14mm hex head with no flange...

 

BTW one time I stripped one of those nuts so bad it wouldnt come out so I had to remove everything and push the rad over so I could drill a hole in the side of the nut and crack it open and off....serious pain in the ***!

 

did that the other day because the ****ing tab on the motor mount is snapped off

 

That happened to my old motor and to make things easier I made a custom nut that wont spin even though the tab was broken....I tool a piece of 3/8" thick steel and cut it into a 17mmx25 rectangle, then drilled and tapped the 10mmx1.25 thread on one side close to the edge.....Then I could slide it into the slot in the head and it wouldnt spin as I thightened it.....

 

damn, good idea.
