Alloyboltz.com has complete kits for specific bike models. Their hardware is top quality too. There store front is local to me and they seem like a good company to deal with.

Quick question, I was thinking about ordering a kit from Alloy Bolts you think it's ok to pull 1 bolt at a time and replace them as you go. Like the primary cover, timing etc.?

That's how I did it. One bolt, one washer at a time.
