Rick they are £28 collected ;)

Other wise like you say, get some stainless bolts and cut them down, not a great feat, use the old ones as a template.

25 parts

6 x sprocket bolts,
1 x hub nut (46mm)
1 x hub washer
2 x stem/yoke nut (41mm)
2 x wheel nuts (36mm) ones marcus57's on loan :)
1 x clutch bracket off the side of the engine above gear box.
1 x clevis pin
1 x clevis
1 x hub pinch bolt (17mm)
Various head bearing bits locking/castleated nuts
Various Torque arm bits thats are mild steel

being charged £20 cash for 25 bits in satin chrome i found them down in walsall "ACF Howell"
will let you know how i get on, they did quote £35 for the full on shinny stuff but i told them i dont want it shiny shiny, just want a dull protective finish, they said to get hi chrome the parts all have to be polished first etc which takes more time. and money :P
