SV1000 Lambda Sensor Thread Size?

[Galviniser]

Hey, havent been on here in a while, got an sv1000s now, 2004 model. i Just need some help on finding out the thread size for the lambda sensor, i removed it t fit a stainless exhaust system and the thread is now dmaged because it was rusted in. i can find replacement lambda sensors but they dont say the thread size.

Just thought id get a decent reply on here

It's M18 if anyone's interested

Do you know the hex size ( I'm not near the bike ) ? Did you use a box spanner for removal ?

Used an open ended spanner, pretty sure it's 22mm, if it's been on there a while use plenty of oil or WD

Cheers. I'm surprised you got in with an OE spanner. Don't remember there being that much room because it was shrouded.

I took the exhaust off first as I was replacing the full system, forgotten mention
