    Thanks BP. I checked the Fastenal website (they have several stores around here), and they don't even carry anything like what I needed. I went looking on my lunch break today, and the local salvage yard wanted $30 for those 2 bolts! And they would have to pull them from a bike (they don't let you pull parts yorself there). I went to the local bike shop, and they wanted $9.11 each. The cheapest I found them online was $7.50 or so, plus shipping, so I decided to get them. At least I know they're the right ones.

    In case anyone was wondering, they are M10X1.25 thread.
    Gee, I was just about to offer you the ones off my special frame that I'm taking the engine out of. I don't need them, so I was going to offer them. But since you already bought new ones I'll just take that back. Heck, if I knew you needed a centerstand I would have offered you mine.

      Well, I got the centerstand for the cost of shipping from another member, and I hate waiting for stuff... I get so impatient, for $20 worth of bolts, I was willing to shell out the cash rather than wait to have them shipped. If they had been any more than that, I probably would have asked for "donations" from the forum.

        Oh well. I would have done the same, cost f shipping, and I would have included the bolts with it . That said, if someone is in need of a special centerstand, I have a parts frame with both center and side stands that both appear to be in good condition. I have the shaft and such as well too, but I figure I'll keep those as the will work as spares for my standard.
