Guys
I have just had to drill out the allen bolts on the bottom of the forks :((GS1000EN), I am about to order up some new ones but 'Robinsons Foundry' the suzuki parts supplier has only one bolt, I'm off to measure it up but can anyone just confirm it's pitch/size/length...should I be able to just order up a standard A2 stainless repalcement or is it special one?

just measure it up, I make it a M10 x 1.0 and 25mm long (from bottom of head to end of bolt

cheers for any help

RB:)

I did a search on the PN and came up with the same
51147-16510 Suzuki .BOLT (10X25)

Odd that it didn't follow the standard size in the part # theme..

The real question is the pitch.. I know Suzuki used M10 1.25 pitch in the foot peg mounts.. If the one bolt you have fits there then you'll know..

That's what it is and there's nothing special about it. Screwfix sell a bag of 50 of them in stainless A2 for under a tenner.
