Well..it finally happened! My 89 decided to eat a screw...lost somewhere in the bowels of the scoot. :beersign:

 

I'm in need of a hexagon screw...part # 90153-10015-00 ...the screw that covers the fill hole on the rear master cylinder reservoir.

 

Dealer did try to find around country to no avail...

 

TIA,

It has been my experience that any lost item from that general area ends up on the swing arm in front of the tire.

If you fail to find it: any 10mm bolt will fit. Banjo bolt, etc. Don't forget to add a sealing (crush) washer under the head.

FYI: the size of the bolt can be determined from the Yamaha part number. In this case: '10015' translates as a 10mm diameter bolt, 15mm long.

Well...no one, Ace or True Value, carries a 10mm X 15mm. The smallest they have is 20mm. To long, for sure.

 

Dealer is now searching old parts bin plus looking through new parts catalogs for bolt. I would think it would be common on many motorcycles...even today's new ones....but the parts department is not set up to search by dimensions...just part numbers....and no cross reference to a new number for this little bolt.

Searching for a screw? Try the red light district...

Hey, somebody had to post it.

 

LOL!

 

Robert is kidding, of course! But he just called me and he found the screw in his parts bin and is mailing it off to me ASAP! He asked that I pay it forward by buying a homeless person a burger....that I will do! Thank you Sir Robert of Scharf!

Next time your in that situation buy, the 20mm long bolt(provided the treads are entire length) and a 10mm nut.

Thread nut onto bolt to the 15mm length and cut excess off with hacksaw.

Wind nut up to bolt head and smooth end off (slightly taper) with fine table grinding wheel.

Remove nut (nut will make your treads Perfect)
