  2. @RickyX 916sp arrived today, will pop some more pics and info on my thread later. Well chuffed, got a lot of spares and original carbon, lots of history. Looking forward to cleaning her up and enjoying a few reserved miles. IMG_6762.jpeg IMG_6793.jpeg IMG_6773.jpeg

  3. Cheers! They look nice on the 916, I’m tempted to put them on my radical project though, I got the stock gold three spokes with the bike so they might go back on.

  5. Beautiful bike you have there Nostromo. I narrowly missed the chance to pick up an early 916SPS in Italy a few years back. Wishing I'd tried harder to secure the deal now.

  13. Is that old bolts re passivated or new sent for passivation, given you said 're' I assume the former?
     
  14. Hi Ivor. Most are old of the bikes and some were new. I bought the ones to replace older ones which were marked / mangled up a bit.
    I said re passivation not because the first ones came out bad but because I forgot some bolts. £90 minimum order as well! Live and learn…
     
  15. @Ivor
    Old bolts, before and after. Yellow zinc passivate.

  16. Morning all,
    Im not sure of anybody can help me. I was re fixing the mirrors on my 1299s after having a re-jig in the garage and needed to remove to get the bike through a single door. In the process i have dropped one of the mounting bolts. Due to work being done on the house it’s a little untidy and i cant locate the bolt. Can anybody help me in were to source an original mirror mounting bolt please

    thanks in advance
     
  17. Might want to repost in tech help, or discussion threads... I'd have thought Any dealer will have that, or any specialist such as Moto rapido or the others on here
