[Gbyte666]

Guys, Can you help. I need some more fairing fastners for a 996 2000. I have found some on the M&P web site, but there are 2 different types of the same colour. ( yea I could phone them, but they are closed right now & I want to order them online now )
These are the two: 5Pk M5X25 Red Fairing Screw AND 5Pk M5X16 Red Fairing Screw. The ones with the sort od circle clip that you can lay flat onto the bodywork.
Or is there anywhere else I can get these cheaper.

Thanks

Craig

Craig, if you want your signature to display correctly you need to remove the spaces you've put in. The link works because I've just checked it (you knew that already I'm sure).

Then it will look like this:

Ducati Shed for original MV & Ducati Dzus fastners.

Seconded above. Kelvin's a good guy. Good price and usually very fast shipping.

You could go to your local triumph dealer for the ones used on the 955i which are the same.
Come in zinc £2.18 + vat or chrome £2.50 + vat and are the same chamfered edge as the ducati oe ones.
These are even cheaper than Kelvin but I got my last set off of him before I knew about this.
Choice is yours?

how about the little allen screws that hold the top & bottom sides together ?

I've lost a couple of these on the 998 and some of the others look to be starting to corrode, so I want to replace them all.

P&H want 4 quid each for them !!!

Cheers,
John.

Ty Ducati as I think they do a set of these including well nut but not sure of price.

There not allen screws either but torx heads.

The tool should be in your toolkit but there made of cheese anyway.

How did they mange to come loose?

Their into rubber well nuts to stop them vibrating loose?

[John W]

No idea how they came out. They were missing when I brought the bike.
Seems like it liked shedding bits, as it had also lost its entire seat lock

P&H told me they don't sell them as kits, just individually at the silly price...
Even the bloke on the other end of the phone was laughing at the price.
If no one else seems to supply these I think I'll see if I can get something similar in stainless from my local fastener supplier.

Do a search for fairing fasteners I think as its been discussed before on here a while ago, maybe even in the archive where theres loads of info hidden.
