Y'all must be very young. By the 1960s Britian had
adopted (BSS?) bolts using
US wrench sizes but with slightly different thread shapes.
However, a few
Whitworth sizes were still found on accessories like
carburettors, dampners and
dynamos. Six-point US box wrenches would fit all but a
couple of them OK.

Thank you. Did you read that, BB?

Yeah, I read it. It's bull****. I won't deny that many unskilled hacks
tried to
use SAE wrenches to work on bikes with whitworth fasteners. Then again,
I've
seen ignorant hacks work on Toyotas with SAE wrenches and sockets, too.

You are just making yourself look dumber and dumber. There has to be a
bottom
somewhere, but where?

Listen to yourself, BB. You've done nothing but chest-thump, rant, rave,
and spout meaningless drivel, post after post. And you've attacked me, Joe,
Scotty, and others, and even their wives with some really vulgar, juvenile
rhetoric. And you say I'm making myself look dumber???

Perceptiveness isn't you long suit, is it?
