bolts n stuff
advice needed ladies and gents
i'm trying to replace certain items on my bike back to original spec, just little things like bolts and washers and such.
i'm looking at buying a pair off rubber washer/grommet thingys that sit at the front of the petrol tank under the mounting bolts, if looked at lings honda and including shipping its £10.33 , that just feels like i'm being
i also need 8x air box lid screws, i don't have any on my bike(bolts instead, just ask carl ) scrub this one, i found a place on ebay where i can buy 100(i only need 8 tho ) for £5.28, lings wanted 61p per screw....
and finally does anyone know the size of the bolt, tank hinge at the back of the tank, i have got a set of verniers to get an accurate measurement

Re: bolts n stuff
IIRC 10mm nut on the long hinge bolt at the rear of the tank - so what goes through there now holding your tank on? or do you clamp your legs tight on the tank to stop it falling off (;
It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

There's a bolt and 10mm nut as it should be on there at the mo , so I don't know what the problem is there.so what goes through there now holding your tank on?
And yes Marty change those allen bolts in you airbox lid, it's a pain everytime I go and grab my screwdriver out of habit, it takes twice as long to remove them, and they are not magnetic.
Your bike is so abnormal.

Re: bolts n stuff
Headlight surround?
I've been keeping an eye out for a spare one to spray white.
Might sort a swap for those cam covers, and the rental on the swing arm

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

Re: bolts n stuff
Am I in a rush?
How long have you had my SA?
No, no rush, Marty
But I want it in black fake carbon, not the pink version, or people will start talking.
But not to me.

when i get back from spain i'll buy some normal colour c/f wrap and do it for you matey, as for the s/a do you want the time period of the loan in, days/weeks/months or years

i've now taken off the colour change vinyl wrap, its been rubbed down and painted tough satin black, ready to be covered in black c/f wrap when i return from my travels
