Sport Screen Mount?

[ThreePutt]

Dumb question of the day.

The two things sticking out at the bottom are what the sport screen mounts (pops on) to.  Are these stock or did they come with the screen?  They appear to be what holds the fairing on. There are two plastic spacers (the white part), are they what came with the screen?

Thanks!

The four stock bolts for the fairing are identical; they are black, allen-head shoulder bolts.  From the factory, the two your photo show would match the two down below behind the turn signals.  These must have come with the screen.

Yuppers, they are for the sport screen mounting. Remove them when you attach the stock screen. I think the sport screen adds a lot of menace....' GRooWL" to a Tiger. I enjoy the airflow and no buffeting  of mine.

OK, so if I read this right, I'll remove what's shown and replace the bolts with black ones.  

Problem is I don't have the black ones.  The dealer installed the screen as part of the deal when I bought the bike.  I guess he didn't give me the stock fairing bolts.  I'll have to take a ride and see if he's still got them.

BTW, the stock screen fits, no problem, with the sport screen bolts.  I've been running it this way for a year.

Thanks!

Does anyone know if a dealer would typically stock just those spacers?  My bike came with a sport screen (unmounted) and the PO couldn't find the hardware.  I'd like to install it at some point, just for grins.

You can get replacement windshield mounting screws from Ace Hardware or any retailer selling metric bolts. I think it is a 6mm.  Also some of the on-line motorcycle retailers sell them in plastic.

Thanks, but I don't need the screen mounting screws, I need the two faring bolts.

I'd like to sell my sport screen, but the bolts in the pic above would need to go with it.  I need the fairing bolts to replace them.

I could probably remove one from below and try to match it at the hardware store.  Does anyone know the size?

Most excellent, thanks!

It looks like all I'll need are the M6 X 22mm bolts.  The sleeve and grommet won't need to go with the sport shield.

Cool.  Now if I could find those spacer/bolts to secure the sport screen ...

Thanks everyone.  A quick trip to the hardware store solved my bolt supply problem and Tiger is back to her original/stock self.
