Fairing Bolts

Post by IanM »

Whilst replacing tax disc last eve (see can be done!) noticed all the small bolts that hold screen and indicators "pods" are begining to lose the painted finish - after 1 year and 7500 miles - so is this normal :?: and other than the local dealer any good ideas for replacements :?:

Yes!

Even new ones can be like that.

I believe that the standard bolts are painted stainless steel, so all you have to do is buff them up!
