handlebar clamp bolt caps
« on: 04 February 2012, 05:24:22 pm »
anyone know where I can source the black plastic caps that cover the handlebar clamp bolts?  I'm not sure what size they are.  5mm?  I have a couple missing.

Hi Mark747eagle
           This site may help www.cmsnl.com if you search for your model it brings up a parts list and diagram, if you go down to steering there is a breakdown diagram. The cap bolts are listed as number 17 and looking at the price list its 2euros for 4 cap bolts. I have never used the site myself and I don't know what the postage will be.
The only alternative I can think off is a breakers etc, hope this helps.

if you want chrome looking ones pop down B&Q or somewhere like it get some screw caps. little dab of silicon and jobs a goodun

i got some black ones a while back (need to get some more thinking about it) but took me a while to track some down at a tool shop. they were perfect push fit so didnt need a dab of silicon.


i offten use the cmsnl site to get part info but have not actualy ordered from there although i have heard they are a little slow to post (around a week or so) but reasonable prices.

Hi They are available from a good Yamaha dealer as they are listed as a Yamaha part. Have done this in the past. Dont remember what the price was.

£1.73 EACH and P&P? ouch
will deff try to find where i got my last ones from if i can bloody remember grrr lol they were £1.50 for a pack of 10 i think it was
prob gone up since then but still might be a lot cheaper.
there is deff a few options around though. the probolt ones i think a friend had and they were very nice as you could get them in colours rather than just silver and black.
