What is the gadget used to create the threads?
2014 BV 350  "IndiGO" (fast, strong and tireless)
2006 Honda Rebel 250  "Snow Leopard" (stealthy, agile and durable)
2018 Lance Cali Classic 200i  "Black Panther" (smooth, nimble, quiet and quick)
2016 Wolf V-50 (sold)

Wanted a Kymco, ended up w a Lance, but that forum is inactive, so I am here

@MB: in this case I would say 12x1.25 mm.
Happy and safe scootering, Ruffus

I don't have FB...so thought this was about a new scooter "thread".

A "die" makes external threads.

The fix for stripped threads on the crank shaft extension (which mounts the front pulley vario) was building up with weld, running engine to file the end to right O.D. then threading with a die.
