    Outer clutch cover screws

    Hopefully I'm describing the right part here -- on the right side of the engine, there is a round outer cover that hides the clutch actuator. It's held on by 2 machine screws. Well, it should be, anyway. Mine is held on by one .

    Basically, I'm looking for a matching set of screws. Short of taking the remaining one to Fastenal or similar, does anyone know where I can get these?

    It's a cosmetic thing as the single screw has been holding that cover on for over 1000 miles, but over the past few weeks I have fixed all my drips and other issues, so I am moving on to cosmetic stuff .

    I know that Ace Hardware has the chrome fastener section, they might have something like that, the size should be M6-1.25 countersunk, 18MM long, they are discontinued by Yamaha. I'm sure someone has some extra used ones laying around.

        Y'all are full of great info, thank you ! I couldn't find measurements, only a part number that as phil said was discontinued. I'll head to Ace hardware tomorrow and see what they have. Knowing the size will make it easier.

        OEM4ME, I'll let you know if I can't find any!

              Yahman is a member here (xs11.com) and he has some hard to find bits. He's a good guy.
