Hi all, I currently have an aftermarket handlebar mounted headlight cowl that came with the bike (‘98 S1) and I want to put the original flyscreen back on.

I have the flyscreen and the mounting brackets are still attached to the bike.

I’m missing the hardware (nuts, bolts, washers). I’m planning on scrounging up some some pieces from the hardware store unless someone can point me to an original hardware set or something similar that would likely look better than what I would choose from the bins.

I'm not sure about the original hardware, but just wanted to mention that the bolts are held in on the back side with rubber well nuts, not normal nuts.

Thanks for the tip, I was thinking rubber washers

I replaced mine last year. Don't remember buying them, but I know I wouldn't have thought it was important enough to have gone any further than lowes to get them.
