Does anyone know where I can get some fixings for my infill panels? both of my bikes have screws missing.

They use well nuts, they're brass threaded bits set in rubber or plastic. You can get them in Halfords in a pack of 5 or 6 I think, they're used for screens ... possibly M5

Unless it is the screws that go into the top fairing, these just screw into the plastic.

Thanks guys I will go and grab some well nuts, do you know what size the self tappers are that go into the front faring?

Don't know the size .... but here's a top tip
Cut the end of the self tapper off, take 3-4mm and make it flat. This is so the sharp end doesn't push through to the front fairing

I have a dislike for Wellnuts, I had an MV Agusta and the factory had decided to use them to hold some covers onto the airbox. unfortunately heat and fuel turns most rubber into slop and the brass inserts almost fell into one of the throttle bodies!

They're nowhere where they can fall into anything or get contaminated
