Has anyone dealt with the guy on Ebay that sells the stainless bolt kits for atv's and atc's. I was thinking of picking up his kit for the 85 250sx i am revamping.

I bought one...I found it alright for the engine and body work. The linkage bolts do not have grease nipples like the stock ones.

I have three of them and plan on getting another one for my 350x soon. They're good except I don't use the shock linkage or engine mount bolts (OEM are stronger). They're awesome kits for everything else though. He puts them in labled bags which helps a ton. My only complaint is they're a little pricey.

Yah ive heard complaints of people snapping them on there shock mounts. Other than that I hear they are very good. Go for it!

Has anyone actually snapped one for there shock mount?, or is it all people who think they MIGHT snap if used on the shock mount

I know Brandon or derrick snapped one of theirs off. Cant remember which kid it was. They told me that at TF specifically.

I recently bought one of these bolt kits for my 86 200x... I am very satisfied with it so far... I bought it from new RPM ATV on ebay... for only 38 dollars.

Got a link to this seller? That's a good price.

Well i mean stainless is not your best bet for motor mount bolts and or linkages or swingarm stuff. A Stainless bolt is not a grade 8 bolt. The kits look really nice, for 77 bucks i know i can't go get them for that and waste a day looking for them at a hardware store!

I also bought the stainless bolt kit off of ebay they are great for a ground up restore cause the bags are all labeled, but the kit i bought for my 350x has the wrong size thread for the shock mounts I believe they are a standard size instead of metric. The 3 bolts that I have had a problem with so far are all to the shock.top shock bolt and both bottoms to the shock linkage through the swingarm.I have bought a kit for a tri-z and 350x and those were the only problems I have run across

Hope this helps

Wait I just looked at all of his items and I didnt see any bolt kits. I guess he got my kit with the 200x he was parting out. I don't know.:wondering But anyway I recommend him got my bolts, and sprocket cover right on time:p

That looks identical to the kit that fastenerguy sells for double the price. You got a smoking deal.

Cycra sells bolt kits also! I haven't bought a kit from them yet, but they look good. The only thing is that they aren't bike specific.
