As above, does anyone know the thread size for the 12mm bolts.

Most are metric fine, so with a 12mm head i'd hazard a guess at 8mm thread. Which bolts do you mean exactly?

You believe right, zx9 engine mounting bolts are indeed M10 fine

The two long bolts on the gearbox are 10mm, but when i tried one in the top mounting position, they just pass straight through.

It's the one on the left.

Mine's like that. M12 goes through and a nut on the back. Rescued attachment cradle3.jpg

I'm sure that m12 was too big for me

(I'm sure M11 is a standard size in Japan, but not Europe). I sleaved the hole and used M10.

Cheers

Bought some M12's today, fit perfectly, so to recap, zx9r 1998, M10 bottom bolts, and M12 top bolts.
Cheers fellas.
