Re the ARP bolts, did you buy a set, or individual? I can’t seem to find a set for the primary/derby, only full engine kits. Edit: never mind, I see you have them on your shifter linkage, coil and other places. You went whole hog, (pun intended) huh? BTW You missed the shifter clamp bolt. I’m very disappointed in you…

Edit again: wait, I thought ARP bolts were stainless? No?
ARP hardware comes in stainless or black oxide, I opted for the black oxide because I like the black on black look. However, they will rust if left alone.

I spent about an hour one night going through the parts manual and writing down all the sizes for every visible fastener on my bike. Then I just ordered them all individually from Allen’s Fasteners. Much cheaper than buying a “kit” from IMZZ or whoever else sells them. When I get back from Alabama I can definitely forward you that list if you want it.

As for the pinch bolt on the shifter, I replaced the shifter arm with a BMC unit so it would match my floorboards and if you can believe it the thread pitch in the new arm is not the same as the stock one (which I had already ARP’d)! I have yet to replace the supplied bolt…..I am ashamed of myself 😔.

List would be great, thanks. And don’t feel too bad. Nobody’s perfect ;-)

I wasn't aware of Allen's Fasteners. Just when I think I'm done, now I have to go back over my bike and replace more bolts with shiny ARP. Dammit!
