Hi Guys
I'm a little slow readin' my mail lately so forgive my late response.
As far as the threads on the locally available part being different you
could run the metric die down the new part and rethread it to fit the bike.
This would leave the bike unmodified.

The triple clamp/fork caps can be retapped to accept these threads, although the threads are barely wider and more coarse than the 6mm's.For the top(i.e. nuts) side, there's of course no problem using a 1/4" nut.
