As some may know already, the early 'coarse' thread Valve Clearance Adjuster Screws on the 8V 1200s (M6 x 0.75mm pitch) are no longer available.
The later type are M6 x 0.5mm pitch.

I'd heard that KTM use the same type on some of their Engines, so I did a quick search.
Third time lucky in my guessing which Engine would use them.
2007 SMR 560
Also used in other KTMs no doubt, and some Husabergs.

The KTM Valve Adjust Screws arrived today, and they are indeed the same as the early model ones, result!!
Later type underneath for comparison . . .
