Windscreen bolt size...07 GSA12

[Bounce]

Can someone confirm that the following is correct for the 4 front securing windscreen bolts:-

Top 2 bolts = M5 x 20

Bottom 2 bolts = M5 x 16

I've been checking OEM fiche plus other sources, and get slight variations in size.....

Thx

Yep, I had a look @ this on the fiche; 19 = M5 x 20, but 9 has 2 sizes...M5 x 18 & M5 x 16MK......unless they're the same

The grommets changed over the years. IIRC they changed at approx 2007. I found this out when I changed my GS screen to a GSA screen. Maybe this is why the bolts are different.

The grommets weren't much so I ordered both sets.

Use some black nail varnish on the stainless bolt heads

Even the originals are only painted over stainless,careful you don't buy blued steel (black color) cos theyll rust

Anyhow why bother with black bolts nowt wrong with shiney ones ? is it a bling thing lol

Bottom 2 = M5 x 16
