Turns out I have 4 holes to fill but on 2 bolts remaining to do it with.
Need to gut the garage to make sure they arent lying around but I did have a box that I kept all the bolts together in
Makes me think that I might have used the bolts in the wrong place.
On the rear hugger, are these the right bolts to use ?
Additionally, when I was putting the exhaust back on, couldnt help noticing this little fella:
Namely the little black "thingumy" to the right of the heel plate.
What exactly is this - ive noticed that this is pretty loose and does it need to be "tight"
Thanks

Rear Brake light switch and it usually is a bit on the loose side.
cheers unfazed - already checked the rear brakes and the light definately on - one less thing to worry about.

Make sure the bolts for the mudguard are the correct length (around 12mm) and the special shouldered washers are in place.
The shouldered washers prevent overtightening and cracking the mudguard.
If bolts are to long and you try tightening them up you are liable to break off the frork leg mounting.
