Lynx:
I just buy packs of satainless stuff M5 - M12 off eBay. Very cheap and don't corrode ;).

Cheers for the offer but I am pretty well sorted out now on bolts etc. My 750K0 being a '69 built one needs the big '8' bolts to be original in some places, and it's the first thing people look for in a resto of those bikes. DSS now imports the Yamiya no.8 bolt kits so I will be forking out out for one of those kits. A guy is selling me a load of NOS Honda bolts for my CB250 at Lotherton Hall (near Leeds) VJMC Show at the end of this month ... again this model has some big '8' bolts but I am not too fussy on that bike.

BZP is Bright Zinc Plated, sorry I should have put it in full.

Cheers ... Ash

hairygit:
The big "8" was a marking on the heads of bolts and some screws to identify them as metric thread, as opposed to the previously used JIS (Japan Industrial Standard) threads.

I wasn't really offering you Ash BTW, I was thinking of the thread starter who was looking for some bolts

Oh sorry -- doh.. didn't read correct as usual ... Ash

Drew400:
Thank you all again (and especially for nearly starting a trading sub-thread!).... hmmm, 'thread'; seems appropriate for these discussions!

Oddjob, I'll come back to you when I've properly scoped out my requirements.

Cheers, D.
