HURRICANE Hole Plug
About quality and texture - Top quality. Textured surface finish on the black plastic plug and is of a strong construction allowing removal and reinstallation if required. About the feeling of use - After I removed the belt drive guards from my Buell, the exposed mounting holes looked terrible. These hole plugs from Hurricane were a perfect solution to that problem. Products to buy together - If you are also using bar end mirrors, Hurricane offer these hole plugs in various sizes to suit the OEM mirror mount points to give your bar end mirror installation that professional finish. Difficulty of installation - Very easy to install these hole plug. Just be sure the hole is clear of any debris prior and press the plug firmly all the way in. Cost performance and comparison with other products - They are a very basic part and the price from Hurricane matches that perfectly. There are other CNC machined hole plugs available from other brands at a higher cost but for me the plastic hole plug was the best option. About shipping and packaging - Sea freight is my preferred shipping option and usually arrives in Australia in 6 to 8 weeks from dispatch. Always well packaged to ensure parts arrive safety and are ready for use. Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing - If Hurricane does not have the correct size for your intended hole just go 1 size smaller and add some silastic sealant to secure it in place.

For M8 is a little different?
First of all, please note that this is not a product for attaching to the hex holes of the Cap bolt. Do not blame the Manufacturer if you misunderstand the usage of this product.
I thought about what to do with the Screw holes that I had left partially visible and neglected, and remembered that there was also For M6 in the product I had bought to plug the M8 holes.
If you pick it up and compare the two, you will see that the texture of the head is different for some reason (minor change?), but the basic structure is the same. However, when you try to use them, the feel is slightly different.
The M8 for M8 is small and fits into the hole very well, whereas the M8 for M8 is not so responsive. The M8 for M8 has a head that fits tightly against the Exactly and fills the hole without gaps, making it difficult to remove, while the M8 for M8 has a slight rattle and can be removed by inserting a nail and pulling hard. I wonder if it is due to the difference in Screw Pitch.

HURRICANE, are you serious?
[How is it used?
I purchased this product to prevent Trouble such as rust by plugging the hole in the Cap bolt.
Was the one you received as per Image?
When I picked up the product, my impression was that it would be easy to install by simply inserting it into the hole. Until this time, .....
Was the installation difficult?
As it turns out, it cannot be installed!
The depth of the hole in the cap bolt is 3mm, but the length of the hole plug (the part that fits in the hole) is 4.5mm! I was going to install it on my FZS600, but I suspected that the cap bolt used on Yamaha cars is special, so I decided to install it on another Motorcycle I own, KawasakiD Tracker, SEA BASSRGV250, and SEA BASS RGV250, and I was not sure if the cap bolt used on Yamaha cars is special or not. I tried with the bolt used in the MOTO GUZZIV11LE MANS, but I still couldn't install them all!
How was your experience with it?
3 Pack total 1Quantity:2pc. After much consideration, I decided to shorten the length of the set and use it. However, if I cut it down, the two stoppers attached to the lower part of the neck would be lost, and if I simply set it in the hole, the Hole Plug would fly away due to vibration and wind pressure. The decision was made to adhere them together using the This bond is flexible even after curing, so the Hole Plug can be removed later.
I first thought about doing the shortening process manually, but the quirkiness 1Quantity:2pc. I used my Belt Thunder power tool because I had a GSX400E to do the set as well. With this tool, it is easy to shave in an instant. But I had to be careful not to shave too much.
[Included Parts:were they on?
There is no such thing.
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
It's super disappointing because it's useless as it is!

Opinion or request to Manufacturer:Mr. HURRICANE, if you sell products like this, you will lose credibility!

It is only looks
I closed the M6Screw hole that I do not use.
Garbageetc. Although it can prevent invasion, since it is Pura Cap, since water enters, water gathers inside when it gets wet, there is a possibility that it becomes easy to rust on the contrary.
There is not much need, but please to prevent Garbage clogging.
