FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

-What is an OEM style bolt?-

Our OEM style bolts are bolts that are the same as your original bolts that came on your motorcycle from the factory. They are exact factory sizes with the same head style and strength ratings and meet or exceed the factory specs.

These are all heat treated and zinc plated to look great, resist corrosion, and last the life of your motorcycle.

-Can I find these at a local hardware store?-

As most of us know from experience, OEM style fasteners are not available at our local hardware stores. The metric hex bolts found at Ace or Lowes are not the same.

These fasteners are only found at the cycle dealerships and expensive to purchase on an individual basis. 

It's nice to have them on hand, right when you or your riding buddies need them.

-What about OEM style nuts?-

Specbolt uses OEM type nuts. You get a generous assortment of flange nuts in M6, M8, and M10 sizes. You also get nylock nuts in M5, M6, M8, and M10 sizes.

-What about metric washers?-

Washers are important for most everything including plastic bodywork, engine, and exhaust mounts. We include a nice variety of the most commonly found washers used on your bike.

-Will I get any sealing washers?-

Specbolt kits contain 4 different, most needed sealing washers. These seals are used for your oil drain plugs, coolant drain bolts, hydraulic brake lines, etc...

-What if I have aftermarket parts on my bike?- 

Specbolt kits include some additional sizes to fit some of the aftermarket items on your bike as well...such as triple-clamps etc... If you want to be sure to get the right size fasteners for your specific aftermarket part...just ask. We strive to get you everything you need.

-Will I get every nut and bolt found on my bike? What isn't included?-
