Front Cowling / Fairing Fastener

Post by Uncle Bob » Sat Apr 27, 2019 11:19 am

On the Swiss Katana the fairing, the 2 underneath screws were held on by these:

which I thought looked good (s/steel or maybe Titanium). Any idea where they can be obtained?
My thoughts are that maybe they are from a German supplier? If no ideas I'll ask Pedda unless he sees this.

The countersunk washers are available on eBay: here in various materials, colours and sizes.

My Speed Triple has that sort of countersunk fastener and washer across the fairing / battery panels.

Ready for when I fit my new fairing I have bought some of these in silver
