Windscreen bolts

After a seemingly infinite delay,

I finally have my Triumph windscreen and solo seat cover match painted to my TBS. Now comes the next battle, I bought the windscreen used and it came without bolts. Does anyone have a part number, advice on a generic replacement or perhaps even a spare set they'd be willing to part with?

Any help would be appreciated.


Cheers!

I purchased some windscreen bolts for my Legend's Triumph fly screen from McMaster-Carr via the internet (google them). They are not an exact match but you can probably order an exact match if you have all the specs. I purchased: stainless steel Metric 18-8 SS socket shoulder screws, Hex head, 10mm shoulder dia, 10mm shoulder with M8 thread. Not cheap but works quite well and since they are stainless will not rust.

The ones that came with my Triumph flyscreen were completely rusted within a month. Not getting them with the screen isn't such a big loss.

Do you have the rubber boots though?

Yeah,

I got the grommets, just not the bolts or brace. The brace is not a biggie, I can fabricate one easily enough, it's the bolts that are the issue. I've got a call out to a few local fastener supply coys to get them on the hunt (thanks for the tip geebee) .... when I find something I'll let you know.

However, if someone knows of an exact replacement, I’m all ears!
