New Divvy 600 Owner- Fairing Bolts??

[kensei]

Hi Guys
I've just bought a 1992 Divvy 600 (Dark Green, Micron 4 into 1 system(to be replaced this week with standard one due to terminal rusting)), it's a bit scruffy in places but the engine is sound (especially since it's done about 70K), and the fairing is in one piece.

However over the course of the last 18 year, as fairing bolts have dropped out they've been replaced by whatever each owner had handy, hex head bolts, Allen bolts, slot headed screws etc.

I'd like to replace the screws with a matched set of something a bit prettier, but when I look at Probolt etc.. they seem to stock everything EXCEPT fairing bolts for a 600 Divvy.

Can anyone point me in the right direction, even OEM parts would do.

Thanks

Whatever you do, don't use aluminium screws. You will hate yourself for it in a year or more when every one has seized, rounded or snapped!

I would say figure out the lengths and sizes you need and buy them that way on ebay or just get a mix pack an replace whatever looks suspect. Stainless button head looks nicest, with a washer where appropriate to spread the load.

What the man above says, they'll all be M5 with maybe a couple of M6 bolts, get a big pack off of ebay for next to nothing and replace like for like

They might be M4 with large flat heads. Best to check first.

They're M5 and M6
If you get a multi pack you can go crazy on clutch lever clamps, perhaps engine cover bolts or whatever you like.

proviso - copperslip and stainless bolt going into alloy threads. To see why, put two in, one slipped and one not. After a month, take both out, noting the noise the dry one makes...

Thanks for the tips. Bought a bick pick n mix stainless set from Ebay today. So far my £300 Divvy is costing me £600+, loving every minute though
