Motorcycle Hand Control Stainless Bolt Replacement 28
Apr

The hand controls on most motorcycles older than five years are screwed together using a variety of screws and bolts, usually finished in an MOD black finish, sometimes zinc passivated or black painted. Hand controls for the purpose of this article would be the clutch and brake lever clamps, the throttle tube pulley housing, left and right hand switch gear assemblies, hydraulic reservoir mounts and tops and, perhaps for aesthetic value, the rear view mirror mounts on faired machines.

Screws are often of the pozi pan or Phillips head type and are prone to deforming when being unscrewed after corrosion has seized the threads insitu. Another problem with these screws is that they are often quite long (up to 50mm) for a typical M5 screw in a switchgear assembly and these are not the sort of length screw most people will have a spare of lying around in their toolbox or garage. With time and change of owners the fixings on the hand controls are often damaged, corroded, seized or missing.

There are two main benefits of replacing these bolts with new ones. Firstly, replacement fasteners will give you new, undeformed threads which will clean the female threads of the accessories they fasten. It will also give you the chance to use a proprietary anti seize compound such as copperslip to future proof your hand controls against corrosion and guarantee ease of disassembly later on. Secondly, you can address the aesthetics of your machine in this area by considering the use of stainless screws, bolts, washers and nuts, which will not corrode, and will retain their finish for longer than your motorbike is likely to last.

You can also consider the use of a socket type head in lieu of the Phillips or hex heads that may be on your OEM arrangement. Socket heads receive allen keys rather than screw drivers, are less prone to deformation under higher torque and look nicer. Where you have a Phillips head, replace this with a socket button head screw. A hex bolt can be replaced with a socket cap head of the same length and thread size and countersink Phillips screws can be substituted with socket countersink screws.

Here is an example of a hand control kit for a Suzuki 1200 Bandit in stainless socket type screws and bolts.

    Spy Shots: Audi A7 slinks onto the ‘Ring 27

    2011 Audi A7 spy shots – click above for high-res image gallery

    Brace yourselves for another round of swoopy coupe time boys and girls. Er, let’s make that swoopy four-door coupe, which is, of course, a contradiction in terms, albeit an increasingly popular one. Of course no one wants to drive the Audi Oxymoron, which is why the brand with the four linked rings is calling their hyper-styled new offering the A7. And here’s some shots of it mushing around Germany’s famed Nürburgring.

    Our impressions? It looks pretty good on the track of all tracks, with just a bit more body lean than you might expect. However, this is probably not the RS7 (or whatever they’re going to call the high performance variant). That said, why would the base model have a pop-up, downforce-generating rear spoiler? We love the fact that zee Germans seem to be creating new automotive niches out of thin air. Anyhow, the upcoming A7 seems to be carving out an entirely new space.

    We know that the original push behind the A7 was to compete with the Mercedes-Benz CLS, the O.G. four-door coupe. But what’s with the Audi’s hatch? Yes, the roof seems to slope off at a precipitous angle, but there’s quite clearly a hatch – just like the Porsche Panamera. But unlike the biggest on-road Porker, the A7 rides not on a bespoke chassis but instead on a version of Audi’s modular aluminum chassis that currently underpins the new A8 and will support the upcoming A6.

    Curiously, and perhaps wisely, Audi didn’t go down the BMW rabbit hole of creating a high-riding station wagon (like the 5 Series Gran Turismo), either. Best we can figure, the A7 will be just like a Jaguar XF – only with a fifth door. Why, then, would one be compelled to purchase the A7 over, say an A6 Avant? The A7 will probably be a bit larger than the A6 (perhaps just marginally bigger, but bigger nonetheless) and to some, size still matters. Besides, lots of folks simply don’t want a two-box wagon form, preferring the added flash of a more streamlined form. And if you’re Audi, you’ll probably get bigger margins out of something like this than an estate, too – especially when the A7 is rumored to be priced just under the A8.
