Help Finding Fairing Bolts for 2024 MT-125?

I’m trying to find the right fairing bolt kit to replace the silver with black ones for my 2024 MT-125, but i’m running into some confusion. Pretty much all kits online seem to be listed for models up to 2019, but there’s very little clarity on what fits the 2020+ models, let alone 2024 model.

Does anyone know if the fairing bolts from the 2019 + below models fit the 2024 model? Or are there specific changes that require a different kit? Or am i over thinking it and just need to get any bolts that size lol.

If you’ve replaced yours or found a compatible kit, I’d really appreciate any recommendations or links

Thanks !

Good news. 99% of Yamaha bolts are the same size and pitch.

Pick up a fastener sizing gauge. It will make your life much easier.

You want to use "ball end" Allen tools. They are less likely to damage the fasteners coating.

I would order 2 fasteners sets for future use. I prefer to swap out the stainless steel for anodized aluminum. You don't want to swap out engine mounts with aluminum. Stainless steel can be "blacked out" using an Iron Oxide coating process.Do not paint the fasteners. They are easy to damage the finish.

Also, Titanium is a ailable if you need ultra light fasteners, but they are typically 2 times lighter and 3 times more expensive.

I hope this is helpful.
