Iron barrel hardware kits?

Good morning,

Over the years many a bolt and nut has been lost from my 1996 Bullet 500 and I’ve had to replace it with whatever serves. I wanna do a complete rebuild/rewire/touchup this summer but first it would be great to find a complete hardware kit for my bike. I have seen there are similar kits available on ebay for newer bullets, but I’m not able to find anything as convenient for an iron barrel. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Most of the Indian fittings are rubbish quality. However, if you're prepared to order from India, search "enfield chasis" on ebay.

I'd suggest whatever you replaced them with is probably better quality though.

Order some BSP taps and dies while you're at it so you can chase through the threads.

That'll be the one. But in all probability, neither will fit particularly well.
