    Anyone know know any kit that uses one of these. Need one for the Missus' NSR and Honda/David Silvers want to rape me for it. It's only used to hold the front of the tank down and so doesn't need to be anything special.

    If you don't have any luck mate, I can recommend a good lube for the alternative :eek: :D:D

    Have the number at home. Top of my head it was about £4 plus the same again in delivery. Seems a daft price for an allen bolt.

    No local hardware shops your way? We have a good one here but I wont get chance to get there until the weekend, don't suppose that would be any good, if it is I can go in there and have a peek for you.

    OK, I thought you were going to say something like 30 quid or another ridiculous number, but agree £4 for a allen bolt is crazy.

    I need 2 fairing screws, rubbers seats for the same and a rad cap, Honda UK want £45, just ordered them for £17 at my local Honda dealer by my US office as I am there every few weeks..............just another example of Honda UK bending over loyal customers.

    Ouch, luckily not quite that bad, but for something so simple it was a daft price. Got to admit if I was doing regular trips to the States I would be bringing plenty of bits back.
