$750!!!! :o

Ok so that ain't gonna work.

New plan:

Long Hex head bolt: 10mm x 1.5
Metal Sleeve: OD 12mm ID 10mm Length 20
24 mm OD fender washer

Think that will work?

Wow, never knew a few bolts could be so expensive.

Think outside the box.  They are available, and for a lot less money than that.  If you give up PM me :)

I can check with my local shop called King Bolt but I can't get out there until the last weekend of May.  :P The sleeve idea should work perfectly fine.

on the left side of the screen, go to "DUCATI - SPECIAL OFFERS"

keep in mind that the lengths listed are the total length of the bolts (shoulder and thread) but know that the shoulder is the exact size you need.

McMaster is a good place to start. Chance are there is one in you neighborhood or at least not too far away.

I'm probably misinterpreting something, but why can't you just use longer regular bolts with your existing spacers?  The shoulder bolts are probably the cleanest solution but it sounds like you may have to get them machined to get the exact ones you want.

Edit, Doh, after reading more, I see that sleeves or spacers are already under consideration.   Amazing how the simplest change from stock always seems to bring unexpected consequences.
