This is the ugliest screw I found on the pani. Zinc plated M8x12 (!)
Who knows of you where the screw is mounted?
The first one that gives the correct answer gets a replacement I made today (INOX, half the weight of the OEM screw).

Aaaaand the winner is Mr C. Please pm me your delivery address. And of course one for the dragon lady.
 
Im such a sado to know that's the horn bolt, I really do need to get out more. Don't worry about my prize, I feel like I almost cheated as I have had the front end off this week and am familiar with ever front nut and bolt
 
So can we just order a full set of panigale bolts from you Gecko?

The real question is how does the handling change with .01 ounces removed from the bike? Please give a lengthy ride report:eek:

Now now, don,t be like that. For some (like me) its fun fxxking around changing out bolts and stuff. We all know it makes stuff all difference to the Sunday ride.
 
I was expecting very different pics from the title of this thread!
 
Attn: ironic answer :)

@ttkarp: handling changed completely! Especially since I am over 95kg
@flobrandx: The screw's visibility is crucial to the overall bike's design and one of the first things a newbie recognizes as inferior good.

@leftcoast32, Claymore, Brad51: Bolt and washer packaged, I'll bring it to the post office tomorrow morning.

Cheers

That is outstanding, Thanks!!

I will gladly send some money your way, pm me your paypal address.
 
A couple of pics of some pretty bolts to get us all over the shock of that ugly one.:D

Some Gold Front Caliper mount bolts and 4 rear caliper mount bolts. Ti from Pro Bolt. Will swap out the banjos when I get time. There is 100 gram weight saving on the front four mount bolts due to their size from OEM. And they are pretty.
