Default chassis bolt question

i bought a new chassis but it didnt come with screw only the cage itself. all i can find in my town is m3 fine thread bolts 5mm-20mm. my question is will fine thread bolts work the manuel shows coarse thread in alot of the stuff. will the fine thread work or will it pull out after some beating?



im going from a ridgecrest to wraith is why i dont already have bolts

Yes use M3...it is better anyway!! Fine thread actually grips better and won't back out like the coarse thread junk!!

ok 1 more question. fastenal only has m3 in the 100count bags. for the price of 1 bag can get a ss screw set off fleabay for the wraith. could i get by with m3x20mm for everything?
i have alot of smaller screws for the 10mm and shorter wondering if should just buy the 100ct bag of 20mm or just order a stock type set but in stainless steel?

its a matter of wanting to drive this weekend and waiting another week to get the bolts. price is the same. but is 100 bolts enough tghe kit has 175 piece.

If it calls for 25mm use 25mm.

Harley has some nice screw kits worth the money.
