I think CBR rearsets will fit with some modification.

Although I've never done it, I believe you can put some LP pegs directly onto the stock GS rear-sets, or you could do like I did and get CBR F2 rearsets and modify them to work.  Then it'll feel like a sportbike, and you can put lower bars on it without feeling like a goon.

Search for author "Chimivee" and check out his thread on his install, or check out my page of pictures at:

Click on the GS pictures folder and check out the different angles I got of the install.

If you want factory bolts, you could always take one of the remaining bolts off the bike and have the dealer match it up.  They should have it in stock, and if not, try any decent hardware store and then you could put different style bolts to get rid of the ugly chrome ones that are on it stock.
