Sylvester Posted April 13, 2012 #1 Posted April 13, 2012 Back in 01 when I bought my 02 RSMV you could buy little chrome spots (as I remember) and insert them into allen hex socket bolts to dress it up. Over the years some have disappeared and I went to look for them online and nothing comes up. Anyone have a link for these. I need them in the 5mm allen hex size and a couple in the 8mm size.
twigg Posted April 13, 2012 #2 Posted April 13, 2012 These do? http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/gma_product.jsp?WebLogicSession=KJw0THXfqbTgKb5hE9PAj506Kirlo9WZMEcg46sAPPmX95IexSYe!84264674!hiwpbmsp01.ihd.hd!7005!8005&PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524442256687&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374309149629&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=2534374309149629&bmUID=1254715445641&bmLocale=en_us
Sylvester Posted April 13, 2012 Author #3 Posted April 13, 2012 Thanks but not what I am looking for. What I have is a spring loaded center that pinches the sides of the allen socket and locks in. They only have a thin chrome layer on top.
playboy Posted April 13, 2012 #4 Posted April 13, 2012 J&P cycles has what your looking for in different sizes would post a link if I knew how but I just went and looked. Haven't looked but I think J.C. Whitney has them too.
steamer Posted April 14, 2012 #5 Posted April 14, 2012 Your local Yamaha dealer will have them. I get mine from lane Yamaha in Watkins Glen.

Haven't looked but I think J.C. Whitney has them too. If you found them at J&P, please tell me what you searched for. I cannot get them to come up for me and not at JC Whitney either.
playboy Posted April 14, 2012 #7 Posted April 14, 2012 lets see home page then cruiser parts entered bike info for rsv then went to engine on the side column. listed 6 parts somebody tell me how to post a link and I'll try that they had the type Twigg posted and the ones that fit inside the allen head look like little spot mirrors
playboy Posted April 14, 2012 #8 Posted April 14, 2012 Try this @ J&P part # zz97072 zz97092 zz97076 zz97094 zz97090
Sylvester Posted April 14, 2012 Author #11 Posted April 14, 2012 Thanks guys? My searches were coming up blank. Playboy, forget the pm I sent.
M61A1MECH Posted April 14, 2012 #12 Posted April 14, 2012 Be careful with those things they are addicting, like potato chips you can't have just one.
Bones Posted April 14, 2012 #13 Posted April 14, 2012 Kuryakyn Kool Kaps. Might also fit the bill. http://www.kuryakyn.com/Products/4073/Kool-Kaps
bongobobny Posted April 14, 2012 #14 Posted April 14, 2012 I still get mine at my local Yammy dealer...
Guest Posted April 14, 2012 #15 Posted April 14, 2012 Ace Hardware by us sells them. :sign yeah that:
Sylvester Posted April 14, 2012 Author #16 Posted April 14, 2012 I went to Ace today, but what they sell is not what I have. Mine are ten years old +/- and don't look like what you all have informed me about. I will try Yamaha dealers and then I may have to replace all of them to make it look right. I took pictures of what I have but I can't get close enough to the spots to make them come out right without distorting the image. Thanks for all your help.
lonewolf96 Posted April 15, 2012 #17 Posted April 15, 2012 Check out Cruisercustomizing.com and do a search for bolt covers or bolt caps. They have a lot of different style covers.
