Header nuts/bolts

[Dudeofrude]

Looking for a full new set of header nuts and bolts to replace the old ones on my gen 2. The currant ones are 10 years old and starting to corroded pretty badly so I figure swap the lot now before they seize.

Any idea wheres I can find some? I'm sure I found them on fleabay the other week but can't for the life of me seem to get them now?

I believe they are M8x1.25mm thread and these look good.

That's spot on thanks

Also which exhaust gaskets are better, copper or alloy? I've always used copper but the Yamaha OEM ones looks to be the alloy crush ones

Ive only ever bought the alloy ones and never had a problem.

I personally wouldn't try removing studs. Way too much hassle if they snap. Never goes right drilling out the broken studs. Get the old nuts off, clean the original studs and copper grease the new stainless steel flange nuts back on.
