Not sure mate, was just trial end error with a huge box of bolts we have in the workshop, if you were really stuck and needed one i could probably post you one as i have others like it.

Picked some parts up from rorz_vts at the weekend and got round to fitting them this morning, took about 2 hours to fit the Nissens rad, Lower Brace and Wheels, needed a bit of "custom fabricating" to get the radiator to fit and while fitting the wheels the side skirt "fell off" shall we say and that took about 20 mins sorting that out with new clips, but yeah here are the pics:
Brace Going on:
Now the wheels, Fox Racing R4s I believe:
On the ramp in ye olde workshop:
Now it just needs lowering and a new set of disks and pads on the back, anyone got any drilled and grooved or uprated ones for sale?

Another update, got my cat-back Magnex system fitted, sounds bloody lovely and there is a nice rasp when letting off the throttle, quiet at low revs though. Will try and get a video at some point and some better quality pics too:
