    Engine mounting bolt??????

    At last my engine bars arrived from M&P, instructions a bit hit and miss but I finally got them fitted, if only I was an octopus when it came to fitting the top plate to the frame!!
    Anyway the bolt they supplied to replace the lower front engine mounting bolt isn't long enough, only 100mm, so I need to to get a longer one. I think its an M8 130mm I need, does that sound right?
    Also can you advise me does it have to be hi tensile as its a mounting bolt or will any do?

    Thanks
    Chalky

    Take it to your local breakers and match it from their selection, they must have one which will fit.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE
