Can anyone confirm if theses cases need longer bolts, or whether they use the standard length already on the bike? If they need longer ones, known lengths would also be appreciated

I had these cases before (which needed longer bolts )but that was on a different bike.

Yes, longer bolts needed. But also be aware that even with longer bolts that the threads in the cases are a bit prone to stripping so don't over tighten them. I had my clutch side off quite a few times when I had problems and ended up stripping the threads. I don't think they screw far enough into the case.

So my UPS order isn't going to arrive in time for my trackday on Monday and GB racing are closed today

Does any one know the size of the bolts for these cases? Might be able to pick up something local to get me by.

Cheers

Add the depth of the GB spacers and casing thickness to the length of the standard bolts................as Bic says, a bit more length would be helpful in the longer term.
