Hi, mates. Could anyone tell me what the exact metric size of the screw is for the front master cylinder reservoir cap?
KZ1100 A3 1983 - Part nr. (92001-1055)
Is it M5x12mm or M5x16mm? (what's the diameter, pitch and length) ?

Since the OEM is quite expensive, I wanted to get the screws from local hardware store.

Thanks

The right m5x12 screws are still available OEM for a few bucks. I'm all for saving money but these aren't expensive. Cheap screws will probably rust and seize in

I replace them with with stainless steel M5x12 countersink screws. With a little dab of anti-seize they always come back out.
