Title: Broken screw- need help finding replacement.
Post by: z315 on June 27, 2015, 08:01:22 PM
Hello!

I got an 07gsf and I am looking for 2 replacement screws that holds the front break level reservoir to the handle bar. I was too aggressive with it and the screw snapped.

Where can I find such screws and can I get replacements from a hardware store?

Looking at ronayers.com, they show the upper bolt as being 6*38. Oddly enough, they say the lower bolt is no longer available. ....

Head to a hardware store and look for a 6mm bolt that has 1.00 threads (probably) and is 35-40mm long. Can't help with the shorter bolt though....

Thank you. I'll see what I can do to find it since it's the lower one that is broken. : (
