Founded in 2005 with the opening of an online store, Bikebolts is a family owned and operated business that was created to offer complete fairing fastening solutions for popular sportbike / café race style motorcycles.
Our Kits and Fasteners
Bikebolts sportbike fairing fastening kits are designed as aftermarket replacements for the OEM fairing fasteners. The fasteners are not specifically designed to match the original equipment provided by the manufacture, but rather to replace and / or improve upon the OEM fairing fasteners. The objective in each fastener kit design is to achieve an easy to install, easy to maintain kit that provides a custom look.
There are 2 styles of fairing fastener kits available, COMPLETE and SCREWS ONLY. The SCREWS ONLY kit consists of just the screws and the washers needed to replace the factory screws and washers. The COMPLETE kit includes the screws, washers, speed nuts (as required), well nuts (as required), lock nuts (as required), and push pin rivets (as required).
All of the screws for each kit may be ordered in a variety of unique color options. The color coating is a baked on powder coat enamel (not paint!) that is cured at temperatures ranging from 400°F to 450°F. The coating is extremely resistant to chipping, scratching, or peeling. Only the head of the screws are powder coated to prevent build-up in the thread grooves. This coating is not indestructible but is far superior to paint and anodizing. The chrome color option is a polished stainless steel finish.
The washers used in these kits are primarily constructed in black nylon. The nylon washers act as a cushion to help lower the compression forces exerted into the plastic fairing. Shoulder washers combined with screws are utilized where required to replace OEM screws with machined shoulders.
