Fork Seals & Foot Pegs & Fairing Bolts

Fork seals from a 2007 Suzuki DR650E (for some reason the E is important because they ask) are the correct size and fit. They also cost only $6.79 per at my local Suzuki dealership. That is a steal because no matter how much they cost from Triumph there isn't a local one of those dealerships anymore.

Also I've recently completed this maneuver: Enlarge the footpeg hole in the one of the following Yamaha models with a 25/64" drill and it fits 'like it was supposed to be there'. The plus is that they're available everywhere including eBay for 20 bucks in all shades and variations.

FZR 600 89-99, XJ 600S 92-98, YZF 600R 95-05, YZF 750F 94-99, FZR 1000 91-96, FZS1/FZ-1 01-02, YZF 1000R 97, R1 98-01, R6 99-02

Since we all lose fairing bolts, because it happens.... For the larger versions, if you have a replacement bolt or pan head allen, you can find a small ring flat washer (or locking washer) for a 1/4" bolt and it fits the original shoulder hole perfectly. This will allow you to use your replacement bolt with a larger washer and keep your fairings aligned properly.
