Windshield screws

Four of the original screws that attach the windscreen to the cowl on my VF500F have been lost and replaced with standard machine screws. Does someone have some original shouldered mounting screws that you are willing to part with?

 

most are well nuts, here is the best source for aftermarket
KurveyGirl - Motorcycle Stuff: Dzus Fasteners, angled valve stems, Vesrah and More

 

Try Probolt.com The have every color and size.

 

Ace Hardware unless these are those special motorcycle items that will cost you five bucks a pop and $19.95 S&H.

There's one Harley shop that has them that look like bug splatters.

 

kinda reminds me of those distressed leather jackets that give instant street cred to a newbie that hasnt riddend more than 500 miles. You gotsa respect a good leather patina fer sure, cant cut some line and buy your way in to bikerdom. Those bullet holes kinda come to mind too, but thats a whole otha ball of wax...laterville. :smile:

 

Andy Goldfine who is the head cheese at Aerostitch actually put some rattlecan grunge stuff as being real in one of his catalogs.

One method of breaking in a new leather jacket to give it that "mileage" is to beat it against one of those 12 sided concrete light poles. What the harleydoods have not figured out yet is that the jacket should come off first..

Creaky - sorry for the delay. I meant to check for you when you made your opening post. I did find a set of these screws and nuts on my shelf. Some have very light surface rust, but I think I have enough good ones to help you out. The rust would come off real easy.

Send me a PM and we will make arrangements. You'll just have to cover the shipping.

 

Funny chit fer sure, Totally priceless, How do you spell quiche anyway>? cause I have some real deal French ones that are getting cold. So excuse me while I sip my wine and eat my quiche. :smile: BTW Badbilly I am on my second Aerostich suit and saw that can of spray paint grunge crap that Goldfine was hawking. I earn my bugs and grime the old fashioned way, I ride for em. I did laugh regarding the 12 sided concrete light pole and HD doodes breaking in their leathers. :smile:

 

Real harleydoods don't eat qwish. Most of them never even herd of it.. A few in Frisco maybe..

I am on my first Aerostitch. I got it from a bud who bought a new one. He and Goldfine are old pals from way back and he gets a deal. From what I understand, Goldfine has a good sense of humor. The product speaks for itself IMO.

I will be wearing it when norklboy and crispy come wanting to goose me.
