Important fitment notes

• Compatibility: For Honda VTR1000F Firestorm 1997–2006 with the original component arrangement described above.
• Check before fitting: Verify the exact year, variant and original mounting positions. Aftermarket assemblies or modified fittings may require different hardware.
• Aftermarket parts: These are Biker Bling replacement components, not genuine Honda-branded parts.
• Exclusions: Callipers, seals, pads, calliper-to-fork mounting bolts, banjo bolts and dust-plate fixings are not included.

Original Honda fixing references

These references identify the original Honda fixings, not Biker Bling product codes. Where more than one reference is listed for a position, they describe original year or variant alternatives, not additional supplied bolts or an asserted supersession.

Model-specific aftermarket replacements: Biker Bling selects these replacement fasteners for the original positions listed above. Match each to its intended location; the reference does not establish suitability at another mounting point.

Eight joining bolts cover the two front callipers, four per calliper. These are not calliper-to-fork mounting bolts.

Materials and head style: The replacement fasteners are A2 (304) stainless steel. Bolt heads may look different from Honda’s originals; see the product photographs. Stainless steel describes the material; it does not by itself establish mechanical-strength equivalence to the original fastener.

When should you replace these fixings?

• Inspect corroded or damaged joining-bolt heads during authorised calliper servicing.
• Check damaged threads and the calliper body before selecting replacement hardware.
• Renew fasteners when Honda’s exact service procedure requires it.

Replacement hardware cannot repair cracked components, stripped mounting threads or an incorrectly seated assembly.

Fitting information

Only separate the calliper halves if Honda’s exact service procedure permits it. Follow the joining-bolt, seal, assembly and tightening requirements for the original calliper. Do not guess a torque value or substitute a different fastener specification. Keep fitting compounds off hydraulic passages and friction surfaces. Have uncertain work carried out or checked by a qualified motorcycle technician; confirm normal brake operation and inspect for leaks before riding.

Use anti-seize or other thread treatments only where the applicable fitting instructions specify them; the included pack is not an instruction to lubricate every fixing.

For general background, read our motorcycle bolt strength grades guide. Honda’s exact workshop procedure takes precedence.

Customer questions

Are these the calliper-to-fork mounting bolts?

No. These bolts join the two calliper halves. The fork mounting bolts are separate.

Is the anti-seize pack included?

Yes. The kit includes 1x Biker Bling anti-seize compound pack (7 g). Use it only where the applicable fitting instructions permit.
