Lol I was thinking that exact same thing. I was trying to figure out if I would be visible once mounted. I didn’t actually think of nail polish though I was going to check colorrite but now that you mention it a trip to CVS may be in order.
Same here Bryon , all bikes sold festooned with titanium and aluminum , so each new bike a whole new fitment .Really the cost does not matter. When you don't do the following.

The nice thing is buying a little @ a time.
Doing a few bolts here n there is nice, and it's not a BIG hit to the wallet that way.
Also don't sell bike with Ti bolts. Keep them for next rides many transfer.
This bike I had to buy due to selling last bike with all the titanium. Guy paid extra to leave them.
No my brother, I haven't yet started the insanity of changing out my bolts...I have used aluminum bolts in other applications and patience is the key to not chewing them up as it is very easily done.Yellow, do you have any issues with the aluminum bolts you use and the heads being very soft?? I had started using some aluminum bolts here and there but I found the heads to be too fragile for my lack of patience. A few times I didn’t seat my Allen socket all the way in and fubar’d them lol. I’m the type of guy that once something pisses me off I don’t go back for a real REAL long time. The Ti bolts are WAY more forgiving.
Damn good find
From these two parts, I will benefit 50 grams??Wow expensive! You will have the lightest Busa around.
I expected you were going the full on c10 route and changing out most all fasteners for TI...From these two parts, I will benefit 50 grams??
I do not expect them to reduce weight.. I wait for my new OZwheels rs-a soon,

The titanium parts is really expensive sport.I expected you were going the full on c10 route and changing out most all fasteners for TI...
