Little plastic pop rivets

Postby Shadrack » Sat Mar 05, 2005 3:57 pm

Had the fairing off and most of these were fooked. The little plastic skirt on most of them was snapped off. Seem a bit flimsy to me. Is there something I'm supposed to use to take them out? Just tugged till they came free.
Anyone know what I have to ask for and where from to replace them?

Someone posted something about the little pocket rockets - think it might have been Bezzer :-? Anyway, they were a lot cheaper than Honda so ask Bezzer 8) And save a few for me too when ya get some Shadrack - pointless both of us paying for some :D

Thanks for confirming that Jism - mind you, it didn't make Bezzer respond when he popped in earlier :(
