My bellypan has been off my bike for quite some time because the two rubber/steel vibration-damping bolts have fallen apart. I just noticed that I have a couple of stainless steel bolts that match the size/thread of those bolt-holes on the engine, and I'm fairly certain I can use them to reattach the bellypan.
Is there any reason why I shouldn't just go ahead and reattach the bellypan with the tools I have on hand, or is the original rubber/steel bolt necessary for proper fitment/function?
