I'm just about to take off my H&B engine bars and replace them with TT alloy covers. Does anyone know the length of the original allen bolts that are replaced by the 65mm one that come with the bars? Not sure I can find the originals (we've moved to NZ since fitting the bars, so a lot of stuff has gone missing!) Don't want to pull them off, to find I'm stuck without the right bolts.
Cheers

btw, anyone in NZ want a set of black H&B bars?

The spacer that fits in when you fit the bars is about the additional length.

Have a rough measure up and i'm sure you can source some in NZ.

Yes, realise that, but wanted to have the correct ones to hand before removing the old ones, cos you can only take them out one at a time!

Original bolt sizes are:
2 x 40 mm long
2 x 45mm long
Don't ask which way round they are fitted.
