I'm rebuilding ,and upgrading ,a 93 750 GSXR just for kicks but I want it to come out looking good.Most of the boltheads are free of rust but the galvanizing is grey and grubby.Is there a supplier for this kind of fasteners ie hexagonal heads with a flange? New looking bolts make a huge difference in a rebuild.
thanks

Check Classic Motorcycle Mechanics - they often send them off and get them re plated (or what ever the term is)

I restored a CB750F (it was an import, looked like the CB900F) and I think I got a kit of fasteners from 'Inox'
http://www.inoxbolt.co.uk/zen/
Although, I can't see a kit for my bike on their website anymore. Might be worth giving them a call. It wasn't cheap though - according to my records, the kit cost £260.
Cheers

Need to measure carefully and use a thread gauge before ordering tho.
