I just went out in the cold(20 deg) garage and checked...I was wrong, it is 6x1.0...sorry, I knew there were a common size, just got the pitch wrong. I could blame it on being old, but I won't....

Troll made a mistake!!!!

The world is coming to an end!  Run for the hills! ;)

Sure they're not 6 x 1.0?  I was thinking off the top of my head they were 6 by 1.0, but I don't know for sure without checking.

That's about as standard a metric size as there is....considered "normal" thread. 6x1.25 is the diameter and thread pitch...the length is about 12 mm.

I'm not a very handy guy, so all of this is pretty foreign to me right now. They had M6 x 1.00 and M8 x 1.25 at both stores, but not the M6 x 1.25. Just doing to searching online and am coming across the same issue.

Went to 3 different hardware stores today and none of them had 6 x 1.25 . . . they more or less said "good luck finding it" because supposedly its a very odd size. Anyone know where I could find one online?

Before you rush off you might want to consider butterfly or wing bolts, it means you can remove  the seat without a spanner or wrench.

With my corbin there is barely enough room for the socket to remove the oem bolt! A wing bolt won't work for mine. Not enough room to turn it !

That's a good point John. I think I like that idea. I'll pick some of those up today. A day isn't complete without a run to the hardware store right?
