Chaps, the small plugs/pins/rivets whatever do you call them. The fixings that are on the top of the dash and on the bottom of the fairing, the fixings that you push the tiny centre to release them.

Well I've busted one and need to source some more so have spares.

Anyone bought any and know what to ask for ?

They fit fine, I put two in the same behind the screen so they still match.. And they haven't fell out up to now :laugh:

The link from Debs are more like the originals.. The ones I got are 7mm according to the advert.. It mentioned Kawasaki and thats why i chose them..

At that sort of money, it pays to have spares in the draw. I could do with having a set of faring nuts and bolts as well
