    They are cheap at the dealer. I put on the right side air scoop last fall and ordered the bolts also because I couldn't be bothered to run around looking for them. I think they were a buck or two. Big deal, think of the time you're wasting looking around to save a few pennies. Wayne

    Just them from the dealer! You will get a quality bolt and not have to spend the gas and money searching for bolts that are kinda the same.

    Ace Hardware is your friend.

    I heard chrome plated bolts add 10 horsepower too

    I've always wondered why Buell went with a T27? Every one including me has a T20 T25 and T15 in a tool kit somewhere. Oh and even if you try to buy a single T27 from Home Depot, they don't have one. I had to buy a six piece set that of course duplicated all the ones I already have just to get the T27. Yes I have the T27 in my tool kit but I wanted one for my ratchet to go along with the 10mm socket I seem to always use to tighten my battery cable.
