They have them for sale on wemoto, have a look and check the part numbers.

Would have thought they would fit.

Don't just use any old bolts, they are specific for the job in regards to strength and design.

AJ Sutton sells them for around £8.50 delivered for 6 bolts.
I bought some the other day when i thought i was gonna have grief getting the old one's off my rear wheel when changing my disc.
They were special order though, it took a few days to get them.

I was thinking of getting titanium ones, they seem to be the thing of the moment and if there's a band-wagon to hurl yourself on I'm your man :)   - but to be honest they're like rocking horse shit so if anyone can give me a heads up on what would be compatible from other bikes Dukes, Triumph the usual suspects, I would be eternally grateful, many thanks to all who've answered already and have a good night y'all,cheers Steve
