Bernie. I have just had a set of head bolts done in
bright zinc plate.
so will give you a choice , to fit shiny silver head bolts or leave standard black ones on [what does everyone think] :?:

here you go Bernie, all done.
your throttle cable was badly gummed up inside, spent a while running wd40 down the inside and then re oiling. [now all smooth] [so you can play with them when you are in the hotel room :) ]

anyway, polished bright zinc bolts on and torqued down.
you may notice in the picture the pullys have,nt got the nuts on the back. think Charles mate who made them got it a tad wrong, the pully bolts were too long and fouled the head bolts, so I cut them down.[don't worry as I have thread locked everything.
