If I take the truck, it costs me about $7 for a 36 mile round trip,
not counting any wear caused by cold starts. If I take the bike, it
costs about $4 for a 45 mile round trip. (Expensive high test crap.)

I'll be checking Lowe's to see what they carry.

I never spent a lot of time in Virginia but I have to believe you have
an industrial area somewhere closer.

Oh yeah, I've just never looked there. Don't need special bolts and
nuts that often. I've got a great supply of various nuts and bolts for
the Moto Guzzi, having bought several an parted them out. But, I
didn't have the stainless steel ones...which are just for looks
anyway.
Just be careful where you use stainless. They are pretty soft bolts
and virtually all of them are grade 2 or less..


The four I replaced don't do anything critical. They just hold the
handlebars. The original bolts had rusted and looked cruddy.
