Metric Hardware Kits

Does anybody have a general hardware kit with Metric hardware? I just got a fan shroud and Alt kit for my speedster and not one piece of hardware, it would be nice to have a selection to grab from. Has anyone come across anything like this?

Thanks

i just went to eh hardware store and bought bags of each size. all stainless.

kinda pricy, but nothing worse than needing one bolt and the stores are closed.

Most ACE Hardware stores, as well as Home Depot and Lowe's, have metric hardware available - some stores have a larger selection than others....

Of course, you can always get them on-line from McMaster-Carr

Or.... you can come up to Kanada-eh and get some beers, a two-fer, visit a peeler joint then go to your local hardware shop. I bought an amazing kit of bolts, washers and nuts at CDN Tire that came in a plastic type briefcase for $19.99. And there have been many an occasion. Seriously this is a GREAT kit, hundreds of bolts, washers and nuts, all metric.

Should I make a kit and sell it?

You'll need a shroud screw kit like these:

Hardware usually doesn't come with the shrouds.
For the alt. kit if you need nuts and washers for the stand, I, too, have a local ACE Hardware store that has a stainless hardware selection that puts the Big Box stores to shame.
Does your alt. clamp have the bolt included to tighten it?

I remember seeing complete stainless kits for sale on The Samba.

Bill thanks for the links, I found that kit on the CIP website. I am gonna put Phillips head screws in for ease of installation and removal.

I did get a bolt with the clamp. I ended up ordering another one from Scat, they have a captive T-Bolt set up that I liked. Should be a fun project, Wife is getting to move Box after Box of parts. I get to peck away on the laptop when I am out on the road and getting stuff I need for the speedster. I was told by Joe Soltis its the funnest money pit you will own. :)

Well, that's true, but the friends you meet on here and a few other related forums make it really worthwhile. We all have more fun at Paso Robles, Knotts and Carlisle than anywhere else (well, maybe Henry's IM BBQ and West Coast Bruce's Oregon tour, too!)

Sure wish we could figure out a way for the West and East Coasters to get together without too much trouble. "Pearl" would LOVE to meet "Mr. Ghia"! Maybe Vince could come visit the home of the East Coast Marines at Parris Island!! Maybe even tour the "Tail of the Dragon" with us next month!!

Well, OK.....so that ain't gonna happen, but it would still be nice to visit with the "Left Coasters". Guess Kathy and I will just have to find a way out there sometime next season. The IM BBQ might be a good start. I just LOVE planning next season's events!!
