    Well bugger. I tried ordering some from Boulevard but it would seem that they only ship to the USA. There is no international option on their checkout. The only 10mm dome head/acorn nuts I can find here are 10x1.5, not 10x1.25. Maybe I will have to live with misshapen nuts. Oh the horror!

      Call Ashley.
      She has stated that their site is not set up for international shipping and she is happy to ship to you.

        not sure where you are located

        try Pacific Fasteners

        M10 stuff in a fine thread is a real pain to source out......

        or is it possible to change the bolt as well, if that is possible go to an imperial equal and use the acorn nut and bolt in a standard size, unless the acorn nut is going onto a stud that is not able to be removed.

        I did this on my tripple tree, couldn't find the metric ones (nut and bolt) so I went to imperial size

          Gatekeeper, the "bolts" are studs that are welded to the frame.
          Ashley said that she would gladly send them to Australia or anywhere else.

          If that is a pic of your Wife/GF in your sig line, allow me to share one of my riding buddy...




          Don't tick her off.

            maybe then the stud can be re threaded ?.....just a thought, but ya if you can get them shipped go for it, just watch out for duties and customs, I just went through it...

            I wish it was my girlfriend, but it's my wife....I try not to tick her off either....

            by the way your riding buddy has nice form.....


            this is the GF.....





            just kidding

              My riding buddy/Wife also assists in piston ring installation on GS engines.
              Yes, she is a "keeper" and NO, she doesn't have a Sister.

              Sorry for the...
