New quiz of the day! - Guess the bolt - SV650.org

5hort5 · 02-02-10, 11:25 PM

Yes to pass the time away I have devised a new quiz called "Guess that bolt". It's fun for all the family

Ok the bolt in question is the one on the right and it could be from the fairing, engine, carbs, brakes and maybe a few other places. Any ideas? Trouble is with this quiz I spent ages at it, I don't know the answer, it was left over in a bolt pot with a few others that I did know what they were and I've replaced?

The one on the left is a M6*20 cap end stainless for scale, the other ??????

It's an adjustment stop, probably from the carb cam.

Cheers Mark.

It's wood Worm.. of the worst kind.... you should treat your children first with treatment and then all work surfaces...

just a little light harted joke.

Thanks Rictus, I have a set of carbs on my lap but I'm not seeing anything that a bolt that size would attach to, which bits the arm?

Edit - arm - what am I talking about, I meant cam

I think he's referring to the screw/bolt that you'd turn to adjust carb balance. Should be on the LHS of the carb-set (as if you had it on the bike and were sat on it)

Thanks Neeja, so if we are talking about the bolt arrowed then nope, which is a shame cause it could have explained my dodgy running as well, the tread is a different size on the unknown bolt. This is from my spare carbs:
