HI all,

Just noticed that my front left fairing (not that it matters which side) is a bit loose. I found out the front two "fixers" are missing! Dunno how this happened, but if anyone has any suggestion of where to get some more, or has a few they can ship my way it would be much appreciated.

I can take a picture of the spot they are missing from in case the fairing has different lengths of screws at the front. Its up under the nose, and the one down to the left front :D Yeah maybe pics will help ...

For the cost of a couple of bolts, just get them from a main Suzuki Dealership. Check here for part # http://www.alpha-sports.com/suzuki_parts.htm , should only cost a couple of quid.

Be warned, the ones for a curvy are "shouldered" so that when you tighten the bolt right up it doesn't stress the plastics and craze or crack it. Also if it's a curvy the missing bolts may actually be plastic rivets.:)

Thanks Pete .. they are definitely the metal ones, because I had to pull the fairing off to repair LHS indicator after someone knocked it over in a car park :(

I swear I did them up tight as, so they shouldn't have fallen out. I reckon someone needed some and nicked mine :(
