I oredered one of these kits from them,http://www.ebay.co.u...=item53f5b97212 now if you read in the discription it says,(Each fairing kit contains all the fasteners required to replace the bikes original visible fasteners on side fairings, front mudguard, belly pan, seat unit and nose cone - where applicable (please note screen kits are sold separately). Simply remove one bolt/fastener at a time and replace with an identical length Pro-Bolt equivalent, using the bikes original backing clip (Appropriate nuts are also included if this is not possible).  (now i was thinking i would get the side panel fairing bolts the bolts around the cockpit shroud and the front mudgaurd ones but all i got was 6 bolts enough to do the sidepanel fairing ones, E, mailed them about there advert and they say i have the correct kit for my bike am i missing something or they pulling a fast one with there advert.

report them to trading standards - the advert is very clear that you will be provided with all the bolts for all the panels. If you paid by paypal you can get your money back through them.

I've bought some stuff from them and its been ok but six bolts is having a laugh!

TDM 850 1993 bought it on Valentines day - must have something to do with why I've fallen for it!

So glad I didn't buy that Pan Euro!

She's tidy, a head turner and a really nice ride but she does suffer from wind noise!

Must be a female!

I believe the company JJC Race and Rally is part of Demon Tweeks in Wrexan but caters for the cheaper end of the market. Worries me when their contact address is just a PO Box

I just had a K&N Oil filter delivered yesterday by them, no problem  very cheap and free next day delivery - their Feedback is 99.9% but quite a few of the negative ones concern pro bolt. It sounds like the issue is with the Pro Bolt ad - that's exactly word for word on their website so it might be worth checking with them if you have every thing in your package that you should have.

I use ProBolt. Never had issues.

 

My tip is meet them at a Show. I bought bolts for my Tiger and not only did we have some banter but the Senior chap told the Oik to give me a decent discount for being nice.

I bought direct from Pro bolt and got the same six screws thing.

 

There answer is "we don't do the self tapper type screws for the Inner fairing and the advert clearly states the screen kit is sold seperately"

 

I bought other bits (lots of e'm) direct from Pro bolt at the NEC and they were great, gave me a discount as well.

Aaah but, the bolts for the inner fairing are also the bolts for the cowl.  Plus, there are 4 bolts holding the mudguard in place. :)
