The screws/washers or the rawl nuts?
Where abouts are you located?
Cheers.

Hi Nick,
screws and washers...,..am here in Los Angeles. I was thinking Amazon but not sure yet.

I have only found new black screws and washers to be available through Mr Ducati. They have a M6 thread. Be prepared for a shock when you buy them that way. The cost is prohibitive! There are two screws that go into a captive nut in the fuel tank (right up the top of the main left and right fairing). These are M8. I have not found these anywhere, though they are the same size thread as a 19” rack mount nut (comms rack that is). If you are not fussy, these screws are fine a dozen. I did buy some stainless steel screws (the M6 screws) from a supplier in England. They are identical to the Ducati screws, but they were silver and clear washers. I swapped out all the screws in the 906 for these silver screws. The 906 is dark blue so they blend in nicely. Dunno how they would look on a red or black 907? I will dig out there eBay address and post it.
Another option is to drop Rudi a line. He has been selling secondhand Paso parts for ages. Fair bet he would have a box full of the screws and washers sitting on his work bench. Do a search for Rudi and you should be able to find him.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

The eBay link will take you to the screws/washers,well nuts. It is not from the supplier I got the stainless steel screws I got some time back.

They look the same as what I got. The bonus is you get the well nuts too! You will need about 30 of them all up if you replace the lot. Put a dab of silicone grease on each screw when you put them in. It will be helpful every time you have to pull them out!
Cheers.

I bought 6mm aluminium black anodised screws ...with the big heads off an outfit we have ( had?) in NZ called Eurobike years ago . I think quite a few bike makers use similar . One thing I do when looking for bike parts is to go to the loval bike shops and have a look at what the new bikes are using ....you never know , you might see something suitable
