Replacement bolts
My SV has had most of the original bolts replaced by the previous owner.
He also took off the footpegs and replaced the pillion seat with a cowl. When I came to re-attach the pegs / seat yesterday, I realised the bolt that holds the beowulf can to the footpeg wasn't long enough (there was a seperate, much thinner bracket holding the can where the right footpeg used to be). I ended up going to B&Q to try and find a replacement, but the only thing close was a roofing bolt with a phillips head (all the other bolts on the bike are allen head). After finally fitting it all and putting the bike away, I saw the original can sat in the corner of the garage and found the oem bolt I needed along with a fancy nut/washer combo - but it's corroded to hell. Where can you buy decent replacements? |

Re: Replacement bolts
Also try popping down to parker's if you have one near you, they're excellent at getting the right sized bolts. I went there and picked up some anodised bolts for my footpegs for a grand total of 7 pence.
