For those in the UK I recommend Tek Hardware.

hmmm... never done it by the bag load... usually find out my sizes and lengths and then truck on down to nut and bolt suppliers...( doesnt help but the best ones i have found are on Industrial Drive in Newcastle).... 316 stainless is generally all i get, the thing i keep forgetting is that stainless into alloy will create oxidisation, so it is recommended to use a good antisieze... and then there is the theorm that using antiseize increase your torque values by up to 25%.... let us know how you get on Klavdy....i have a hefty supply of essential nuts and bolts at the moment..... always grab 3-4 more than i need when i visit the stores were i used to work.....

What is it with all the stainless deal coming out of the UK?  Is it the sh!t weather that requires it or something?

Seriously I have seen a bunch or dirt cheap deal out of the UK, but nothing nearly equivalent here in the US.

Edit: DO NOT order from these guys!!!  The package finally arrived - slit open on side and empty (but still containing the Invoice).  After a couple of e-mails they have refused to do anything about it and went silent.  I am currently disputing the charge via PayPal.  I will update with more info later.  But long story short: the small and VERY THIN padded envelope could NOT hold 560 pieces anyway...unless they were all tiny washers.  Insufficient packaging - and an attitude that it's not their problem.

I ordered this 560 piece kit last Sunday for Klavdy's Tuono:

Seemed like a killer price to me: less than $40.00 USD shipped to me in California (from the UK obviously).  They said it shipped last Monday.  I'll report back on the quality when I receive it.

A BIG Plus one for Desmo Parts.

I have purchased a Stainless kit for five different bikes in the past from them with great results, don't worry about ebay just go direct @ http://www.desmoparts.com/

P.S. You can also buy individual S/S bols to make up your own kit @ the above site.

Hope this helps

  I also bought a s/s bolt kit for the FJ from Desmoparts. Good selection of bolts and an easy to follow list of what bolt goes where. Great people to deal with.  Highly recommended. :good2:  Regards, Pete.
