Gas cap screw profile/specifications
Does anyone know of the proper length pitch and diameter screws that i need for the gas cap? this is for a 2005 ninja ex250f. the previous owner sold me the motorcycle without the screws for the gas cap so its been flopping around while i ride. Thanks in advance!

From what I can tell, it's a M5 x .8 (pitch) x 12mm (long).
We replaced ours with stainless steel bolts from a fastener supplier, but they were a standard stock item. |

If you have an ACE HARDWARE, or TRUE VALUE HARDWARE store they usually have a nice selection of metric stainless steel hardware. Forgot the big box hardware places.

When I replaced some of the miscellaneous OEM fasteners with stainless steel allen heads, I just drove my bike there, and then removed the ones I needed, when walked in and matched them up. Best part is the employees loved it, and some even helped and got into it. Even had a few fellow riders stop and say, that's and awesome idea to just do it that way. SIDENOTE: you can purchase fastener kits for the fairings, engine covers, etc.... I personally went the stainless steel kits on both the 250 & 500
