    Just started to renovate/customise a Bonneville T100 03 and the majority of the nuts/bolts/washers are rusty/corroded. Rather than wade through a massive detailed parts list, I was hoping I could buy a complete nuts/bolts/washers "kit". Does such a thing exist...?

    Never seen one, sorry. The fasteners on my T100 were all SS and in good nick so I'm not sure how much of a market there would be for one.

    When I had Bandits the world and his wife sold bolt kits.

    Yo Seb, welcome :) Not sure about new "kit" but my pal has very good results building his café racer special with a zinc plating kit. Things come out like new and it's not rocket science. Uses it all the time and does bits for others. Uses a plastic bucket, plates and electrodes. Replacement plates when needed are about £14.

    That's an interesting way to go. At least you know you would have all the correct sizes. Does the plating affect the threads Pete?

    No probs with threads Dave and he's done a lot. I was going to use this method for my 1963 Tbird but I sold bike to a pal. I will definitely do this to any future stuff.
