Hi everyone,

I'm finishing up a 1300 Okrasa build. Its time to install the clutch but I don't have origional m8x20mm bolts.
Are these high strength bolts?

Thanks

Why can't you find any ?? They are the same as 1600cc bolts they sell new ones $5 to $12 for the bolt kits ... but if you want to buy them from your hardware grade would be 10.9
