If it's just engine and other non stressed areas you want the bolts for look on ebay for bolts by the bag you can get 100's for the price of 20 from Probolt, they are very very expensive try these: -

If you want stressed area bolts/nuts i.e. caliper mounting, fork pinch bolts then you need to ensure you get thr correct grade of SS.

Look at other suppliers such as Namricks. Do a search on the internet there are loads around. Pro-Bolt is very top end stuff. A4 is the best grade, A2 is harder but not as corrosion resistant. A4 bolts should be fine for what you want them for, and A2 as well.

Check out Nooj who is a member on this site, this is his website, I'm sure he gets a certain percentage off pro-bolt.

The four cap head screws for the handlebar clamps are M8 x 30mm long. (FZS600)
i.e. 30mm from under the head to the end of the screw.
