I think I read on here somewhere of using the tie down bolts from a CBR600 or something like that to replace the original style bolts that uses a large flat blade screwdriver for removal; now of course I cannot find that info.
Anyone happen to know what I am referring to? There were three part numbers to get......
Thanks
As in the cbr bolts use something besides flathead to remove them? The OEM ones you can use a coin, edge of a key, almost anything to get em loose if you didn't crank em down too tight.
The CBR bolts use the same hex key as the fairing bolts.....looks better.
And I was able to find the info; bolts are from a CBR900, not a 600.....what would I do without partzilla.com.....
I guess this would be the #1 stupid question of today - what / where on earth are tie down bolts?
The seat cover's bolts
I bought some knurled handwheels from Ebay. Check you get the right bolt size, obviously. I think Gen 5 uses an M6 bolt.

Got it - thanks 🙂
Yes, they're from the 900RR.
The VFR's more protruding versions are commonly called "Frankenbolts" around here...
