Default Generic engine bolts

Who makes the best looking engine bolt kits? Gotta love spending all this money on chrome and have to look at the crappy $5 bolts. I've considered the chrome caps, but they don't seem to last.

gardner -westcott makes very high quality bolts and they make complete sets, if you want to do every bolt on your engine and trans, get the builders set for your year/model bike. not the cheapest, but in my opinion, the best way to go. by the way, nothing looks better than having all the bolts on your drivetrain chrome. just one of the details that sets bikes apart

Alloy Boltz makes a nice set of stainless ones polished to a show finish. Don't have to worry about rust like chrome ones.

depending on nickel content, stainless can be brittle.

proceed with caution, use a trusted vendor. let them know that you have a "riding bike" not a trailered "show bike".
