There is a guy on e-bay that sells complete sets for gs1100's and gs 1150's and they aren't priced to bad.

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:
Here's a link to his E-bay store http://stores.ebay.com/Netgap-Motorcycle-Goodies

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.
