Robert Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 i just bought a stainless steel engine cover off matt b and it seems as though the stock allen key bolts are too long and dont hold the engine cover still, has anyone else had this problem?

b_have Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Rob, just cut a few mm off the bolts or replace with some blingy annodised alloy ones like Envy sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timwildman Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 You can get the bolts from any old fastner shop, just take in an example and ask for one a couple of mm shorter they are normally very helpfull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
