Stainless bolt kits on ebay

[Lonewolf]

Has anyone bought one of the stainless steel bolt kits fastnerguy is selling for ATCs on Ebay? I was just wondering if all the bolts fit well etc. It seems like a fairly good deal.

yes. they work good. just dont toss your old hardware because all the nuts and bolts aren't in the kit.

My tri z kit did not include the bolts for both brake calipers. rear carrier, top triple clamps, and a few others I can't remember.

Alot of guys say to use the stock bolts for the suspension as well. or replace them with new gr. 8 bolts from your local hardware store. Its been said that the cheap stainless woun't hold up to the abuse.

i have to agree with the first guy not every bolt on the bike is in the kit, I got a kit for my 250sx and I was pretty happy with the majority of the kit. You couldn't buy it all at a hardware store for that price they are asking, and it also makes look a little nicer with shiny hardware too.

I got one for my 83 250R a while ago. I mostly used it on the engine, and the cosmetic stuff. I used the factory bolts in the suspension

is that the guy who's @#$#@^^ bolt kits clutter up all my ebay searches? :bash:

I GOTTA say tho, the polished bolt kit on ebay is BOMB... so many quality bolts, nuts and washers.

Am I to assume that the majority of the bolts are hex head? That is the way it looks in the pic....

[chrisr200x]

They all use a hex head. better get yourself a good set of metric allen wrenches.

hey stealthduner, got a pic of the bolts on your r?

I bought the kit and the fastners look OK but a bunch of them are the wrong size(6x40mm instead of 6x45mm).
I have sent him several messages with no response.
IMO don't waist your money with FASTNERGUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Buy from someone else. He does not stand behind his product!!!!!


:salute: FASTNERGUY

That is something to consider, especially when stainless already has a tendency towards galling.

I boughht a bolt kit in 05 from a guy on ebay for 98 bucks and it came with everything but the carrier bolts and swingarm bolt. I even had extras. very nice kit

I had bought a bolt kit from the fastenerguy on ebay for an 86 250r rebuild. Time, money and other projects cut me short. It is a very nice looking kit and I need to get rid of it. Messege me if interested.
