Here is the "Word" In them! They are "Not" in a "Kit" form! They "Now" come with the "0" Rings not mounted! YOU!! must buy your own allen 6 mm bolts!
Use Grade 6 to 8 "Without" the ridges (usually found in Grade 10 to 12 which have "LARGER HEADS" than the smooth head bolts)! You need 8 - 6 mm smooth head allen bolts that are 20 to 25 mm long! Either will be "OK"!
The "ONLY" Person that has them for sale in the USA IS Orient Express Period!!!

Since I used 25 MM Length Bolts and saw about 5 ot 6 MM Sticking "Through" the nut retainer, I felt that 20 MM Would be neater looking! I spoke to BA today who stated that you must use 25 MM! The 20 MM is not quite long enough to get started on "Both" Holes at the same time! Sorry for the wrong information, but I wanted yours to look better than mine! Now I know that there is "Nothing" I can do about it!

I doubt you can do the "group buy" thing anymore. BEAR Engineering entered into some sort of an agreement with Orient Express. It is my understanding that Orient Express is the ONLY place you can get BEAR stacks from in the U.S.. So, I don't think Pierre will be sending any to the U.S. unless they are going to Orient Express!!

The Cheapest possible! No strength needed! The Grade 6 to 8 have the smallest heads and work best!

The Weaker Grade 6 to 8 Bolts are either Nicad or Nicad II Plated (Silver or Gold color) which is rust Proofing!
Stacks are now a Must Have addition for the "Serious" Go fast person! To me, the Pipe is #1 the PC3R is #2, BMC or K&N are #3, Bear Stacks are #4, Dyno Time #5, New Seat #6, Windshield #7, Raising the HandleBars #8, CF Rear Hugger #9, New Ohlins rear shock, #10 and #11 is a Steering Dampener! My #12 is 02 Mirrors!

Just being a picky fuck here, but metric hardware does not use nomenclature like "Grade 6 to 8". Metric hardware comes in different classes (ie. class 8.8, class 12.9).

SO you are saying that there are 2 grades with some of the "Numbers" I used "8 & 12" and are you also saying that the 8.8 is weaker than the 12.9?? would you also say that the 12.9 is usually Black from the heat treatment and usually has ridges around the outside?? and would you say that the 8.8 weaker bolt is usually silver Nicad which has no ridges and therefore smaller head?? OK!! Now when I was in school, Grade was the level of knowledge and Class was usually the subject in the grade! First comes the Grade and second comes the class! So if a dummy like me walked into a fastner store and asked for a 6 mm bolt that was 22 to 25 mm long and was not stronger than a grade "8" , do you think they would give me a 12.9 "Class" bolt??
In 59 years, I have never had that happen, but I will be sure to let you know when it does! All I was trying to get across was to order the weakest bolt with a rating! Since I do not know everything, and there may be a 6.6 or a 7.7, or 3 marks or 6 marks or no writing vs some writing, I tried to make sure the understanding was Less Strength was better than more! I try not to talk in any technical terms if possible here! Everyone already says that I sometimes speak down to people, so I try to give information with a little technical jargon as possible! If that is OK with you! (You can use stainless)
