Stainless bolts
 

I'm after some stainless bolts for the gsxr front end. I need the bolts that hold the discs on (can only find them on wemoto and they're like £4 each and I need 15 :( )

I also need the 3 bolts which hold each caliper together. The ones that you need the stupid star bit for, which I would rather replace for normal allen key ones.

Anyone know where the best place is to get them?

Any decent hardware place will do them for a fraction of that price. I replaced all the engine bolts on my last bike... took them out one at a time, measured them and took the measurements to a local suppliers. I got the full set for less than a fiver (tastynuts were charging over £30 for the full set)

google industrial suppliers into a yell or thomson search engine, they will be your best source.

Do you think the hardware places will have bike specific ones?

Re: Stainless bolts
 

most bike ones are basic metric bolts. Caliper ones are different threads but if you take a bolt they will have a replacement.

Just be aware that probably all the bolts you mention are high tensile steel which are generally stronger than most stainless bolts

Re: Stainless bolts
 

oooh that's a point

This is good advice. 'Normal' stainless bolts may not be suitably strong.

Try BSR Aerotek - they do suitable stainless bolts in disc sets, which I have found a bit cheaper sometimes.
