RE: Bolt Covers?
#7



Thanks Jim, you have given some good ideas. I thought about painting the large washers on the engine mount and I did paint the heads of the factory bolt heads on the down tubes but that was a fix for the rounding of the head bolts due to a faulty socket.

The chrome covers might be more attainable than black plastic. Seems as if I saw some of the chrome ones in my search yesterday. The chrome ones shown in your link above are not the hex base acorn style like what SW Motech sent. Hey, the bike came with "bare" bolt heads. I guess I can live with that!

There is a strong possibility the original engine mount bolt can still be used and it would match the other 2 bolt heads. (Washer still needs painting, however.)
