    Are our bikes 5MM adapters??

    Looking to replace one that I accidentally brushed by and cracked the threads on. Are these the same thread as fits our GS ports..5MM??

    MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)
    1978 GS 1000 E, 1979 GS 1000 S, 1973 Yamaha TX 750, 1977 Kawasaki KZ 650B1, 1975 Honda GL1000 Goldwing, 1983 CB 650SC Nighthawk, 1972 Honda CB 350K4, 74 Honda CB550

    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

      Thought so Dale..but always double checking before I hit the button. Wish I could just find a single one though. Oh well, some spares in case I do it again.

        Chuck, make one. Or four for that matter.
        Brass rod, drill a hole through the center and chase new threads with a die. Spin a nut on and add the o-ring.

        Done like dinner.

          Would also need to run down a die with the right pitch. easier and probably cheaper to order them..came to 11 and change shipped.

            Hey Chuck, I have an extra set, because mine disappeared in the clutter for a while. Anyway, they're back and you can have them just let me know. Ray
