Assuming that's the ones that hold the air cleaner silencer in place, I just used literally two long 6mm screws on mine. I am not bothered about the bike being concours, just looking good. Function before form when out of site ;)

Not even trying! - I just spoke to a guy in London that won a left & right Z1 switchgear for big money, the seller put full sale value on the package and the buyer copped for the VAT and the post office rip off bit . . . How much in total ?

Its not madness if he is building a bike which could sell for £25k. Not all sellers will declare a low value even if you ask which I do every time.
