Default motormount

Recently was adding sliders to my zx6r when one of the motor mount nuts decided to dethread. I went to the local hardware stores and they don't have any matching nuts. I ordered one from the kawasaki dealer but they said that it could be a few days. Meanwhile this cute girl wants to go for a ride tomarrow. Any sugestions, as a last resort could one day without it really hurt? Help me please!

It "dethreaded" or is it stripped? If stripped, keep that cute girl cute and wait for the correct part.

To me "dethreaded" means that it just backed out and needs locktited and retorqued. Why my question.

edit: as in unthreaded

Yeah, I don't think I would really want to risk not fixing it first.

Are there still threads there to turn a nut onto?

Get it fixed first so your safe just in case.....then get her stripped , she'll be all giddy after the ride. Plus another day or too she'll be even more excited!
