Howdy!

I just acquired a '96 Tiger in pieces through a trade. Unfortunately it's missing all of the mounting hardware for the body panels. Can anybody tell me how many and what pieces of hardware I need?

Thanks!

not to piss in your cornflakes but I just tried ordering some of the gas tank bolts for the fairings a few weeks ago from Bike Bandit and they are no longer available from Triumph USA :x

I used stainless countersunk bolts on my Steamer re-build, along with aluminium countersunk washers, like these................

I`m sure you could get something similar from the US  :)

I've succesfully used this setup on my Tigger Tank bolts for the last few seasons.

STAINLESS SOCKET SET (grub ) SCREW M6x25
M6 x 18 mm WASHERS 3X DIAMETER STAINLESS
STAINLESS STEEL SERATED FLANGE NUTS M6

Like adjusting tappets!
