Coloured Bolts

[Red Biker]

As I'm mellowing in my old age and starting to realise other colours are available (Red) for the bike, I've found these guys as an alternative to Probolt. I've ordered some bits so will let you know how they compare, fraction of the cost and are stainless.

NB
Made to order so lead times are 2 weeks

@Red Biker  I know you've not been active here for some time but hoping you may get an email notification of this reply.

In case you do - how did these work out for you?

Be very wary fitting anodised aluminium bolts..They are made from poor quality cheese and snap, corrode and fade in colour!

[VladTepes]

Those from GWR aren't anodised aluminium they area coasted stainless steel (not anodisation, some other process)

In any event what I really want is a complete list of fasteners for the 1400.

yeah mate I updated a week or so back

[Red Biker]

Slightly later than planned..... but yeah 2 years on and no issues, bolts have held their colour and still look good.

Had a casing off earlier this year no issues so considering the cost I think these are great value especially compared to pro bolt.

NB not anodised, they are stainless 😉

[froudy]

They do look good

Red, i just go to local bolt shop, stainless whatever just a few buccks, far far less than online products and garanteed good quality.

Hey Red, Were the bolts all the same size or multiple size's, Cheers.

[Red Biker]

Hi Yeti,
It was made to order, so I used the bolt size's guide to get what I needed, I think there are just 2 different length's for the casings.

Min order was £20 I think so ordered a few spares and some spaces which I have used on the handle bars.

Cheers Red
