stainless for everyone (foothangers)

[steve kearl]

Hi Stevej,Pedro and everyone who is interested. What I have been thinking is perhaps if someone can get the measurements for the bolts that are used with low level cans (as they are shorter) then I can approach this guy and see if he will do all the different sizes on perhaps the same deal (minimun order 100). Then we can go from there and he says they can be whatever grade we decide. I'm easy I will go with whatever anybody wants or whatever this guy recommends.

whats he making the entire foot rest bracket?

[steve kearl]

No stainless steel foothanger bolts ie, see my previous threads please.

I would take a set for the standard M900 setup. I have used Inox for most of the stainless fasteners on the bike and have found both the product and service first class.

Cool thanks Dave have put you on my list, need a lot more people now to want them.

[steve kearl]

Hi there again Pedro, just a quick question, are your exhausts high or low level?

[Kev Bunney]

If they`ll fit a standard M750 you can put me down for a set, in fact you can put me down, end of story :lol:

[Pedro]

Hi there again Pedro, just a quick question, are your exhausts high or low level?

Low level Leo Vinces

There are two types of bolt, 8 off in all, 4 of each (I think!!!)

The lower two on each side (well side stand mounting ones) are bigger thread. I'll pull one of each out tomorrow and check

[steve kearl]

Cool thanks Pedro, yeh! on mine you have 2 sizes, four of each and then the gear lever.
thanks

[steve kearl]

Hi Kev, great have put you on the list.

[steve kearl]

Hi Pedro, David T, and Kev Bunney, What grade of stainless does everybody wantto go for, I'm easy, I will go with the flow.

[Kev Bunney]

Not much of an expert on the different grades to be honest, but I suppose the simlpest answer would be the best grade ;)

[Pedro]

Right then, I pulled out the bolts and drew them up as promised but....

There seems to be three differet types. The top ones are all the same but the lower ones are longer on the lhs so they hold the side stand.

Steve K - pm me your email and I'll send the drawings over.

Ped

[Julie]

put me down for two sets please.

my 620 and ruths 600

[Drucilla]

I'll have some too please, M900 Hi level cans

[Kev Bunney]

Well done the Bunney girls, we`ll soon get the numbers up !!

[A Yerbury]

yup id have a standard low set pleseee

[steve kearl]

Hi julie & Ruth, have got your order thanks, can you confirm both are low level please.
thanks

[steve kearl]

Cool, have got your order.
thanks

[steve kearl]

Hi Pedro, after reading your email I thought I better check the lower bolts.
You are right there are two different sizes. I guess like you say to do with the side stand. So that would make three different sizes for low and high level.
So what I tried was, I took all four lower level bolts out and found out what was the longest bolt (which was 39mm of thread on the M10 size) was and then screwed that into where the shortest bolt went and it fitted fine as I guess the thread depths in the engine are all the same. So cool if we go for the larger length in low level and high level exhausts, we are back down two sizes again per bike. Also did you check the gear lever bolt? As I also spotted there is one of the same design on the brake lever but it is fitted in reverse, so you don't see the head perhaps we can sort that one out later when we have sorted this lot.
When you done all the drawings and measurements can you send me a copy also can you change my measurement on my drawing from 34mm to 39mm on th M10 size please.
Now have 6 sets requested for low level and 2 sets for high level.
When all the measurements are done we should see if there are anymore sizes that we can use one length for, it would cut down the amount of orders we need.
thanks again Pedro.

PM me your email and I'll send drawings

[madhatter]

I'm also interested in nice shiney things!

Mines a standard 1996 750 Monster with the standard brackets, so should be o.k. Can you drop me a PM and let me know what the cost is likely to be....Ta..

[steve kearl]

Hi Pedro, my email address is bown.newmilton@virgin.net
keep them rolling guys, we have seven sets of low level and 2 sets of high level.
In reply to your question Madhatter, if we can get an order of 100 per size bolt they will be £4.50 each.
cool thanks

[Pedro]

Will email drawings from home later.

Is Autocad format ok? Or does your man want a DXF or something?

Ped

[boppy]

Put me down for a set for a '900 high level pipes, cheers.

[steviej]

(ST ST=stainless steel to you) :D


Hi Peeps, yep put me down for a set please...........................

.......................Depending on the costing, maybe grade 430/430F??

[steve kearl]

Hi Pedro, he says he would like the drawing in Jpeg format please.
thanks

[Fosse Foxfight]

Yup, put me down too, as Pedro points out the nearside lowers are longer. Best material would be 304 (A2) this is the better grade for machining.

Sean

You done the drawings Pedro?

[Pedro]

Okey dokey!

Just emailed Autocad files to Steve so I'll convert them at work tomorrow.

Three drawings in all.

ta rich

[steve kearl]

Hi Rich, cool thanks got your order.

[A Yerbury]

a quick note and an "idiots guide to monster foot rest hangers" as we now know that the side stand is part of the left side set up -ouch- ditto jen/queen g and sm! on the right one of the bolts attaches the engine earth to the frame! tricky to spot and easy to tear the bolt (Im sure u all knew this anyways!)
