Whether you would risk them to secure the discs is another matter (even though they were the same spec as the non original ones that were holding my discs, stainless A2), but as they seem to be the same size as fairing bolts it's might be a useful.
Front disc bolts
Re: Front disc bolts
John, just get some second hand ones in there.
Brake bolts are up there with chainsaws. Way too dangerous to play around with
Stainless looks great, but will they be okay when you need to brake like this guy didn't.

Re: Front disc bolts
Well if that's the case then folk better not go putting non standard callipers on and grinding bits off the fork mounting and while we are at it folk should not be fitting their own fork springs because it may not be done correctly and could end up taking a dive. Oops the front wheel has now fallen off because I did not take it to a professional mechanic when I needed the wheel bearing replaced. 
Oh look a flying sheep.

Re: Front disc bolts
No rusty old shitty OM's. TI will be going in when I get around to it. Not for weight purposes though that's nice but anti corrosion. Oh and my back disk has been ground down with an angle grinder a few times to get it through the last couple of MOT's. It will have a new one for the next MOT though as it's starting to look a bit thin

Ohhhh, I was cringing waiting for something to happen in that video, but to be fair even if he'd got £100 super duper bolts holding on his discs it wouldn't have helped muchVarastorm wrote:John, just get some second hand ones in there.
