I still have some of these lying around at home:

If anyone wants a set, PM me and I'm sure we can come to some arrangement.

I've had them on my bike for yonks now. They don't come undone, or crack the panels, and they can be removed easily at any time, unlike the stock well-nuts. I've attacked those with a hack-saw once, adn I don't want to have to do it again.

be careful when trying to undo them as the splines can easily round off if the nut is a bit stiff. if i were you i'd try plusgassing them the night before as if the splines round off and/or the nut is seized they are a bit of a bitch to remove.

just spent a very unpleasant saturday night hacksawing, molegripping and drilling the f*cking stock bolts and well-nuts out of my top fairing. :(
