Hey guys -
So I went ahead and bought a Zero Gravity Double Bubble windscreen for my 2003 r6 offa ebay. The guy said he had a lot of old stock still kicking around and it was a good price. Finally gave me reason to replace the ugly blue one the previous owner decided to stick on there. The windscreen came in on Saturday and it was just as advertised. I unbolted my old on, slid the new ZG on, only to realize that the zero grav windscreen didn't come with any hardware. The old screen had these rubber gromet things on each screw hole through the screen. Each of these little gromets had a thread on the inside that the allen screws that hold your windscreen on thread into. I could pop these out of my old windscreen, but they have a rubber ring on them that makes install into the new screen really difficult if not impossible without some modification. My question is this:
Can I use the old rubber gromets somehow? And if not, where can I get some hardware for my screen? Preferably for cheap, is this something my local dealer should have in stock?
Thanks. :hump
