Default Nuts and bolts

Hello,

I didn't know where to post this...

I remember a thread about best places to get bits and pieces, for example, the rear sprocket bolts (just cost me £12 - for 1! - from my local dealer which I can't help but think is a rip off) - but I cannot find this thread on search.

So...best places/websites to get bolts/nuts/washers etc would me much appreciated...post away!

Alex.

If you want stainless stock cap heads and button heads, m4, m5 etc then screwfix is brilliant, bag of 50 is less than four quid.

I used these guys for some hi-tensile studs that I just couldn't find anywhere else.

Cheers.

I think somebody should sell a "one of everything" pack for the SV. (And other bikes) - for those bike specific hard to find parts.

Rear sprocket bolts/studs are a custom machined piece not a standard bolt. £12 is a bit much but they're not just an off the shelf 14p bit with the decimal point shoved over a bit.

Find a local engineering supplier for nuts, bolts, bearings, etc.
