Paint scuffs and light abrasions are no bother to me because I'll be re-painting. But cracks or broken fastener holes not so good (happy to see photos if you think the damage is really minor). :D Shipping to Australia preferred but if that's too much bother for you, no worries, I'll tee up a UK...

A long shot, does anyone have a 'few' (ideally want/need 5 - 10) of the large headed screw fasteners of the type that hold the sumpguards etc to the Alp/AT etc knocking around? Preferably not overly rusty or chewed! Happy to supply beer tokens in exchange. Phil

Hello, from a long-time lurker! I've slowly been getting my RD04 running again, after a long lay-up. I've (finally) managed to get hold of a replacement right hand fairing panel, and I notice that I am missing part of one of the dzus fasteners. It's the washer with a collar on (see pic...

I have to recommend Stagonset (Stagonset Stainless Nuts and Bolts, Screws and Fasteners) for stainless fasteners. Placed an order last Friday morning, email confirmation that order had been dispatched the same afternoon, and now (Monday morning 10 o'clock) they've just dropped through the letter...

I'm in no rush to sell this so thought i'd offer it up on here before ukgser (lots of people check that so it would most likely sell fast) Khyam Biker Tent £100 Not much to say really, it's not damaged apart from one internal black fastener that has a bit of plastic missing but still clips on...

I have a pair of genuine Belstaff Pioneer XXL trousers in Long fitting for sale. I bought them about 2years ago to go over leather trousers in the winter and only wore them a few times before deciding I didn't really like them worn that way and they are too big otherwise. They have been in...

Dear Wise Ones, New TA to me, spent this afternoon changing oils, filters and checking fluid levels. I have noticed the front securing lug on the o/s side panel is broken. Anyone got a really easy way to put this right without having to buy a new side panel. It is quite secure with the...

I was concerned about the lack of bungee hooks on my RD04 as there are only two of them. On my Transalp there were four which made life a lot easier. The answer is a couple of stainless steel eyebolts, you can buy them from your local fastener/chandlery shop or even get them on ebay. You...

Any one found a supplier of Fairing Fasteners, the 6 underneath that hold the side part to the middle? I found one outlet that want £1.18 for each one. I need 4 but I want to get 10 or 12 for spares. Rick
