Removing crash bungs
« on: 07 May 2020, 04:07:37 am »
Hi lads


I went to remove my crash bungs and took the left one off, put the bolts back thru the engine mount and realised I needed either shorter bolts or thick spacers/washers to get the nut to butt up against something, due to threads not going far enough up bolts


Can anyone spec me new bolts to order or spacers ?


Just need length and width


Cheers


I’d have measured them but silly me lost my tape measure  :rolleyes

are you not able to measure the exiting ones and then just add on the thickness of the bung mount..?

Hello. Original engine mount bolts Gen1 Fazer 1000.


1x 10 mm bolt 110mm long.
2x 10mm bolt 115mm long.
1x 8mm bolt 115mm long.


All measurements taken from under bolt head.


Hope this helps.   :)

Awesome thanks !


I take it they are the lengths Without the slider ?


And bolt shank widths, not hex head widths ?

 Don't forget, if you're not buying oe, which I always would with engine mounting bolts, they'll be 1.25 thread if you're going to keep the original captive nuts.

Yeah standard length bolts.
When you fit crash bungs you get longer bolts with them, well you do if you fit Yamaha ones.


Yeah Bolt diameter, not the Hexagon head size.    :)


Off memory, I don’t think the nuts are captive.

Your memory is correct FILZ6. I've just swapped a set from one bike to another. They are not captive.
