92 banshee Posted March 14, 2007 Report Posted March 14, 2007 i know a lot of chrome or stainless steel bolts suk & brake but has any 1 every use these bolts???http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...p;rd=1&rd=1 I've used them and I think they are better thean stock for sure...first stock are aluminum...strips very easily especially since stock are philips head...and they look good too...but i haven't had any problems with them breaking or stripping Quote
dajogejr Posted March 14, 2007 Report Posted March 14, 2007 I bought a complete front bumper to rear bumper stainless set off ebay for about 95 bucks shipped. They come with everything except the upper control arm bolts, foot peg bolts and swingarm pivot bolts. I got three kits, two banshee and one YFZ kit, so the guy cut me a deal, 280 shipped. But the kit from fastener guy is about 100 bucks shipped...for everything. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/YAMAHA-BANS...098329957QQrdZ1 Quote
Bansh-eman Posted March 14, 2007 Report Posted March 14, 2007 i also went with fastnerguy... got a polished set for 104.00 and a little change after shipping.. Quote
racer Posted March 15, 2007 Report Posted March 15, 2007 first stock are aluminum...strips very easily Im not so sure about that one. I have taken apart a few banshee ans dont recall ever seeing any alum hardware. maybe it was disguised by the rust. Quote
FireHead Posted March 15, 2007 Report Posted March 15, 2007 Im not so sure about that one. I have taken apart a few banshee ans dont recall ever seeing any alum hardware. maybe it was disguised by the rust. Yeah, that's not right. Yamaha never put any aluminum fasteners on a Banshee. Quote
racer Posted March 15, 2007 Report Posted March 15, 2007 Yeah, that's not right. Yamaha never put any aluminum fasteners on a Banshee. you didnt even catch the rust joke, youre slowin down dude. Quote
FireHead Posted March 15, 2007 Report Posted March 15, 2007 you didnt even catch the rust joke, youre slowin down dude. I got it, I just didn't want to keep it. :woot: Quote
RNBRAD Posted March 15, 2007 Report Posted March 15, 2007 Yea 16 dollars for that cheesy kit is a waste. Go with fastner guy. Quote
FireHead Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 Yea 16 dollars for that cheesy kit is a waste. Go with fastner guy. I agree with the price vs. quality statement. With fasteners, you get what you pay for. I don't have anyexperience buying "bolt kits" though. :thumbsup: Quote
WALLACE84 Posted March 18, 2007 Report Posted March 18, 2007 I bought a set of stainless bolts from AlloyBoltz before the guy died and let me tell you, they were definatly worth the money. I dont know if someone else continued the company after the guy died though Quote
theshee Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 I bought a set of stainless bolts from AlloyBoltz before the guy died and let me tell you, they were definatly worth the money. I dont know if someone else continued the company after the guy died though I think they have gone downhill after the new owner. My alloybolts kit sucks balls. The bolts just stretch and wont toruqe and the nuts are a joke. I wouldnt give you a dime for an alloyboltz kit. I am chaning all my alloybolts out because they just get loose and make shit leak all the time. Stock is the safe bet for most bolts. Quote
dajogejr Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 I've put together my front end and shock with fastener guy's kit. No issues at all so far. Quote

I am chaning all my alloybolts out because they just get loose and make shit leak all the time. Stock is the safe bet for most bolts. Yea, there are alot of things I only use stock bolts for. Ex:cases,footpegs,etc. With the old owner of alloyboltz, he made everything fit perfect and not strip out. You could call him and he would talk about one bolt for an hour lol. Just as RNBRAD he knows Quote
FireHead Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 Good fastener manufacturers are hard to come by sometimes. It may not be the guy who is assembling the bolt kits fault. QC is all over the place with fasteners, especially if they are made overseas. :geek: Quote
