If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Second the emay guy. He claims they are all grade 5 bolts, quite sufficient for the covers on a GS. he sells complete sets for $20US on ebay for my GS650G

Make sure that they are 316SS...if they are 304SS they will start to corrode. 316SS is harder but more brittle but for side covers they are way more than enough.

I got mine from the Ebay guy after I sent an email. Beautiful set, good price and a huge visual improvement. Nice guy too, he even includes a kit to help you measure any odd bolts for special orders. I got a list for him.... Well worth it!

Find a Fastenal store. They mostly deal in commercial orders but will be willing to order the number of bolts you need. That is who I got all mine from.

I also got a set of these SS bolts from Dr. Bolts aka Burk Motorsports. Nice guy, easy to deal with and has the packets set up to match your model. The OEMs on my bike look like the previous owner used Vise Grips and a hammer to remove and reinstall the previous ones, beat to s#@t. I haven't put them in yet but look forward to seeing if they look as purdy on the bike as they do in the bag :twisted:

awesome find. I was actually hoping to replace all my engine cover bolts with black allen head bolts, but I might just have to pick up a set of these stainless ones.
