Title: Need exhaust bolts!!
Post by: ConanLloyd on October 02, 2004, 10:20:40 AM
I made the trade with Sprint 9 and am trying to get my exhaust off the bike.  3 of the 4 bolts came off fine, but the 4th is frozen completely.  I am going to get a screw extractor set, but will need a replacement bolt.  Any of you all have any laying around?

Just take one of your good bolts in to a hardware store, find a nut that matches (M10, I think), then get a bolt of about length in that size.  I seem to remember that Suzuki specified different bolt lengths for different years (even though the engine is the same), so length may not be that critical.

M10 bolts should be available in 5mm increments.  Try the next-longer size than the bolt you've got; if it won't go in all the way, try the next shorter size.

I think I bought one or two extras (they came in a package of 4), but I think the postage would cost more than you buying the bolt.
