  • Zinc-plated socket head bolts

    I was not looking for these. I actually was looking for something else entirely and stumbled on a link for "gold socket head bolts."

    The vendor does not call them that. It calls them zinc-plated yellow socket head metric bolts. They have a pretty good selection. Not sure if it's everything on our bikes, but many of them.

    The prices are not for the shy of heart.

    I'm wondering how those might look against a black engine and black tank.

    Not for my current bikes. They're for "The Build" - whenever I stumble on it.

        Whew... titanium washer head hex bolts. Those are beautiful if you can avert your gaze from the prices.

        That is not Dream Bike money. That is more suited to Lotto winners trying to figure out how not to leave any money for the kids.

          Hi Patrick,
          those fasteners are for Porsche owners to buy, what did you expect?
          BTW, the yellow Zinc M10s are 1.5 pitch while Yamaha's M10s are all 1.25 pitch.

            They don't just do titanium bolts. I've had stuff from them..... but no Lotto win or impoverished kids.... so far......
            They do nice alloy caps for allen bolts... with a little rubber O ring to hold them in place. They come in different colours and I used them on my FD filler plug, handlebar clamps etc.
