Is it possible to get generic plastic fairing bolts/screw something possibly like an o-ring kit?

Or are all these plastic bolts specific to each bike?

Are you talking about these ones?

They are the same for all bikes, but do come in different sizes. Just make sure you order the correct size and you are fine.
PS - I hate these pieces of chit!! LOL! They always pop out/break. Whoever invented these things needs to be punished :lmao:

iirc you may be able to find those at CT, as they seem similar to auto ones I have purchased. Someone please chime in if I am incorrect.

Bingo! I had to buy a bunch to replace on my bike last winter. CT does carry them in the automotive specialty bulk fasteners area.

I always stick with OEM, they're usually only a couple bucks each. They all match, no worries about matching thread pitch or size, and it keeps the bike looking factory.

I've gone to look at a few used bikes that had mismatched fairing bolts and immediately lost interest. To me it's a sign of a crash, and/or just someone that isn't willing to put a few bucks into maintaining their bike.

I remember one "never crashed" SV650 that had probably four or five different none OEM bolts holding the fairings on, that was a quick pass.
