Re: bolts
Didn't think they were a fine thread, could be wrong though.
They don't need a high torque and there's plenty of material to grip to, so enough threads can engage.

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Re: bolts
i tried to screw in 10mm bolt wont work i believe japs dont use coarse thread on larger bolts dont ask me why but normal bolt only just moved into thread so unless you force it stripping bolt and bolt hole its no go

Re: bolts
The Japanese certainly do use standard coarse threads; I have just replaced the bolts in the top yoke with standard M8 studs - they screwed straight in.
What does help is to gently run a tap through the threaded hole. You should feel the difference between a tap cleaning corrosion and crap out of a thread and a tap actually trying to cut a different pitch. A tap will remove any fouling, screwing a bolt in will just compact it.
