adamd   10 #1 Posted March 14, 2009 I know it sounds like a daft question, but i took the battery of my bike and lost one of the bolts.  I want to know if i go in to a bike shop, would they sell me 1? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
carosio   176 #2 Posted March 14, 2009 Can you give a detailed description of the bolt, ie, is it a special or standard type? What is its length, thickness, how far along does the thread go? Is it a cap or hexagon head? DIY stores usually keep standard sizes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
adamd   10 #3 Posted March 14, 2009 I cant describe them as i have lost them! They fit on a Triumph TT 600 battery.  http://www.onroadzone.com/tt600/tt600_1.jpg  I would say that they were about 10 to 15 mm long and about 5mm wide, just connectors really! square nut on em Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

petopan   10 #6 Posted March 14, 2009 I have a couple of suggestions. Use a hack saw to cut down a suitable sized bolt to fit your battery, use the corresponding nut. Another couple of good sources are Paul at Manhattan MC and Mick Flynn's shop at Langsett Road.  Be well  Pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Bikerdave   10 #7 Posted March 14, 2009 There only 10mm bolt heads with 6mm threads (metric) about 15-20mm in length,any hardware place should stock them.You may have to cut them down though.Don't forget to put a washer on each end.

petopan   10 #8 Posted March 21, 2009 I have a Kawasaki GPZ 400, which has been stood for 13 months, no test or tax..  It as been kept in a garage, so not exposed to the elements. Overall condition is very good but it needs a new battery, some new petrol and a tinker to get it back into serviceable condition.  Colour is black, new tyres and every thing is there to complete as a project. All paper work is with the bike and so is the original manual.  Genuine sale.  £195.  You will need a van or trailer to take it away.
