Windscreen fairing bolts
I think I found a way to mount my shiftlight, I just need a windscreen bolt about 1" longer. Anyone have a place to get one to match the head of the regular fairing bolts?
I took the big bracket off and I need a bolt long enough to go through the bracket that holds the shift light.

They have a weird shoulder design, it isn't like a normal socket cap screw so I don't know. I didn't see any on Fastenal's website or any of the other fastener websites. You might be better off replacing all of the bolts that way they could all match and you could still get your one that is a little longer.

Just drill through the windscreen to mount it with supplied bolts (if there are any). i think dubious mounted a radar detector that way. i'll look for a photo.

I went to fastenal today and got a stainless bolt with pan head Phillips ( blends righ in with the other bolts) and it works perfect!
used two nuts to space it out far enough fron the windscreen so it won't hit it.

not with bracket racing here. .02 will put you out of a race quick. From noon to 5 pm the sun hits the guage cluster at our local track and you can't hardly see anything

set it at 10500 that way your reaction time will let you have it shifted by 10800. if you set it at 10800 you will be in the rev limitor by the time you shift.
