I was thinking of removing all the black fairing bolts and replacing them with stainless steel bolts. I think there are two different sizes, 6mm and 8mm. Anyone know any source or kits for these? Thanks, Tim |

I also am replacing the fairing fixing. So, I bought the rubber nuts from the local dealer, but any bolt. The rubber harden, so you've to replace them to avoid the fairing cracks. You can use the stock bolts, there not harden! If you want steel bolts, you can brush the black ones.... Ciao |

I don't think it's the weight, the wind load at speed would be the far bigger factor. I converted the OEM panels on my '92 900ss to Dzus, very heavy and thick panels, and they were fine. Until I forgot to attach them together at the bottom while at Indianapolis Raceway Park, and the left side came off at about 120mph! It doesn't come off pretty, and wow did it travel! Left the racetrack altogether, came down outside in a parking lot..... And yes, I fixed and re-used it! If you're concerned about thickness, Lockhart Phillips USA sells their own version of Dzus in different lengths, for OEM or aftermarket race bodywork. (sorry, shameless sponsor plug here!) |
