  1. All the bolts around the fairings are black other than the screen ones are black, I know it's a total tarts thing but can you get black ones ? I've looked around but can't find them ?
     
  2. Use a black magic marker :upyeah:
     
  3. Or black nail varnish
     
  4. Yes. Look on eBay.
     
  5. Give it time, and the bugs will do it... On an off subject, aren't those tiny bolts a real pain in the arse!!??
     
  6. Yep I bought some. Don't know how to put a link on here but it's ebay item number 140430761325.
     
  7. Pro bolt should do them as per OEM look. They certainly do them for 748-9** I assume they are the same. I have them on all my bikes.
     
  8. When you replace them, make sure you actually take off the nose cone....so much easier and you wont loose any of the nuts :upyeah:

  11. Or dab a little glue on them, saves taking the nose cone off. Top Tip Top Trumped:upyeah:
     
  12. 2 points to Matt for that answer.:wink:

    Double top though to Sam, he split Matt's arrow in half with that one :biggrin:
     
  13. Get alloy ones not anodised steel. steel ones go rusty underneath and stain fairing.
     
  14. Who's Sam LOL!
     
  15. lol.....i have no idea mate :biggrin:

  16. I found that using the ring end of a spanner to slide down and grip the captive rubber nut worked ok as well...think it was a 10mm which had the usual angled head.
