Nuts, bolts, fixings and fastenings

:?:

Where might I find all these gems?

I have a couple odd bits and bobs missing on my bike and would love to replace them!

Any ideas?

you can get kits and individual bits from pro-bolt nice but pricey for what you get or david silver spares for original honda stuff or stagonset and some ebay sellers if you size up what you need.

if you have the spare parts manual it usually says what the bolt is ie M6x16 6mm bolt x 16 mm long

go to a specialist nut and bolt shop and they will sort you out easily with the right info and far cheaper than honda or special kits

I use custom fatners, and remember that the pitch on Japanese threads is different to euro ones
Jap = 1.25
euro = 1.5

pro bolts a rip off! dont use those .

any fixing/fastener shops will have what you need for 1/3rd of the price of pro bolt.

I checked price of getting original fairings/bolts/brackets/nuts etc, nothing to do with radiators/pipes/engine/screen/forks/pegs/wheels/brake lines/ECU stuff etc and yet it still came to the equivalent of £700 off what I spent on the bike altogether(in rands since im in SA obviously), this is brand new original stuff from honda by the way, so I put that idea to the back of my head and then stamped on it :cry:

My fairings are not original, the side panels might be but they've been 'edited', the rear fairing is one piece(and was 2 piece when made) I have however somehow lost a rear tailight bracket so I will have to get from honda(their systems were down today :down: ) just hoping its under R150(price of a tank giving me 200k's+ of fun for a damn bracket and 2 screws lol)
