Hf 6.5

[redsox985]

Home depot had them. 8mm in dia, 1.25mm between thread peaks, and I got 20mm long. Metric uses distance between threads, not TPI. I understand that it's metric because it's a honda rip off, but why is the shaft tapped 5/16x24 (standard threads)?

Same reason car wheels are in inches, tires are in mm and fuel economy, even on Top Gear, is miles-per-gallon and not kilometers per liter. No consistency.
