I have stock of the Button head screws I make the Instrument screws from, which are M8 x 50, so I'll have a play on the lathe this weekend to see what I can come up with. As you've suggested it's all about holding them and getting the thread on straight. The images I've seen show them threaded all the way up to the head, is that what you've seen in reality? Thanks Nasher.

Yes pretty much all the way there's not much distance between the head then thin nylon washer , thickness of teatray then the frame plate and mudguard. Probably get away with 3mm possibly more

Thanks Darkness.
That's interesting that they are all 20mm with a plain section at the top. I'm going to have a play at the weekend on my lathe and will post the results. Nasher.

Apologies guys, I'm having a bit of trouble standing still at the lathe for even short periods of time at the moment - it's a long story - so haven't got any further than turning down the Stainless Teatray bolts to a plain 6mm.
I just need to put the M6 thread on them, and will hopefully get some prototypes knocked up soon. I do have a couple of sets of the Stainless Instrument cluster bolts already knocked up ready to send out if anyone needs them. I made them a few weeks ago for a couple of people who asked for them but have never paid me and have also not replied to PMs. Nasher

When you get the bolts ready I'll have 4 for my carbon fibre tray
Anything else you make in SS for the 900 I'll probably be interested in as well |

Apologies, I’ve not had any opportunity to develop the tray screws, but winter is here and there will be times when an hour or two in the garage with the heater on will be preferable to being outside.
Thought I’d give the other parts a bump up the list for those that haven't seen them. Nasher.

Did you ever get the warning light covers made?
I am still interested in one as mine has small gouges out of it and looks a mess. |

I did actually, and I apologise for forgetting you wanted one.
I've been advertising them on the 'other' UK Ducati forum and on EBAY, but will create a thread on here shortly in case anyone else wants one. See: http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/s...087#post561087 Nasher.

Thanks for the advise Nickj.
I took it off in the end, and have actually got the Revlight on ebay at the moment. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/223267296825 Nasher.

Just a cheeky little new year, post Xmas, bump for these.
Although unfortunately I can’t accept payment using the W.H.Smiths vouchers that Aunt Fanny sent your kids for Xmas and you had to purchase from them for cash. Nasher
