Does anyone know what specific size these are? Length and thread size? I refuse to pay nearly 30 bucks for Buell screws. Bike is 2000 M2. |

Depends on your rotor: Buell OEM or aftermarket. I used Buell XB rear rotor screws on my Prolite aftermarket rotor. But the Prolite needs button heads, not countersunk like the OEM's. |

Harley's use the same bolts if it's the button head screws. They're torx fasteners. I don't know if they're any less expensive than the Buell items. |

M2, If you mean the screws that attach the rotor carrier to the front wheel they are 5/16-18 X 3/4" long flat head socket screws. I have an updated Buell rotor and carrier that's not rebuildable. It doesn't use screws to hold the rotor to the carrier it uses "H" shaped bushings that aren't removable. It has both Buell and Nissen logos embossed in the carrier.

^Thanks! I'm actually adding a dual disk set-up from a kit that Buell Racing made a long time ago. How I ended up with it, I'll never stop wondering. |

Go to your local fastner supply store and they will hook you up waaaaay less then what a dealer will charge you. Just got mine and it cost me under $5 |

Matt , I am always wondering too . You have no clue how much aggrivation that kind of thinking has caused me over the years , but I will never leave well enough alone . Lets try fastenal . I will need some screws too. I may be interested in your old rotor . Mine has a crack . Andrew |
