FireHead Posted April 20, 2007 Report Posted April 20, 2007 Does anyone one know the thread size and pitch of the lens screws? If anyone one local to me has two of these screws in good shape I would be willing to trade them what is in the picture below and a beer for the screws. :thumbsup: Quote
CRAZY-SHEE! Posted April 20, 2007 Report Posted April 20, 2007 how much would it cost to ship the beer? lol Quote
nunyabinness Posted April 20, 2007 Report Posted April 20, 2007 are you saying you are going to trade that for just the screws for the tail light that goes under that cover??? well i am not super local but i have a couple of tail lights out in my garage. i could probably send you one. i won't even charge you anything for it. or are you looking for a tail light/brake light??? if that is what you are looking for i don't have one of those. pm me if you want it.

I am just looking for the two screws for the type of Banshee taillight that cover came off of. I am saying I would trade that cover and a beer if someone local had the two screw (the screw in the picture with the cover replace those two screws if anyone just wants to put the cover on their bike and give me the OEM screws they remove). I have no idea what I would charge for the cover if someone wanted to buy it. I would just assume give it away to someone on the HQ and possibly make a new friend. :thumbsup: Quote
FireHead Posted April 20, 2007 Author Report Posted April 20, 2007 how much would it cost to ship the beer? lol Does UPS let you ship beer? If so, I'd throw a beer in a box with the cover if you payed the shipping. :biggrin: Quote
nunyabinness Posted April 20, 2007 Report Posted April 20, 2007 these are the 2 screws you are looking for??? if so i will send them to you. it would only take a day or 2 to get to you via FedEx. if you want to send me the cover that is fine. if not that is fine with me too... i'll pass on the beer.

Those are the two screws I am looking for. I would just assume not put you through the hassle of mailing me two screws. If you wanted to measure them for me that would be cool. Then I could waddle myself down to the hardware store or borrow them from work. :geek: Quote
nunyabinness Posted April 20, 2007 Report Posted April 20, 2007 ok screw size is an M4 length is 18mm (from base of the head to the end) (]=\\\\\\ ^ ^ like my little illustration??? :biggrin: thread pitch is 0.7 darn and i was hoping to get something shiny to put on my bike... just kidding i hope the above information helps you out. i will tell you i measured the length by using a metric wrench. sorry i was too lazy to go in the house to get my tape measure.

The screw measurement is great. I'll see if I can come up with those this weekend. I actually have a taillight with the screws I need on my red bike in my garage. I was just too lazy to go and measure them last night. My trade offer still stands until I get my ass down to the hardware store this weekend. I can't believe someone never jumped on my offer. Someone local must want to put a taillight cover on there bike. Quote
nunyabinness Posted April 20, 2007 Report Posted April 20, 2007 i just noticed it moved my arrows on my little illustration. they were supposed to be under the ] and the end /. Quote
FireHead Posted April 21, 2007 Author Report Posted April 21, 2007 i just noticed it moved my arrows on my little illustration. they were supposed to be under the ] and the end /. After riding around town for a couple hours tonight I am still not any closer to having the proper screws. Home Depot did not have them and I found out that the local Ace Hardware closes at 5pm. I did double check the measurements on my screws this evening and they are indeed M4x0.7 - 20 screws (via calipers and a thread gauge). My offer wto trade some one that cover for the screws will stand through tomorrow evening when I get the proper screws. After that I believe the offer will change in that I will take a beer in trade for the cover. If not of that works out, I will be mystified at out how retarded the general populous is seeing as they cannot seem to even get something for free (I am not sure if I needed to tape a five dollar bill to that cover or what. I mean it's pretty nice, I just don't want it). After that it's going on eBay, where I am sure I will get atleast $10+shipping for it. Quote
nunyabinness Posted April 21, 2007 Report Posted April 21, 2007 hey now, i tried to take it off your hands but you said you didn't want to have me mail you the screws. oh well, i'm so broke right now i couldn't even afford to send you the money to ship that cover. but hey you can't say i didn't try.

I wasn't poking at you in particular. I know you said that you would send me the screws, but I didn't want to go through the hassle of shipping you the cover and I certainly didn't want you to have to ship me the screws just because I was too lazy to solve the problem myself. My real issue is that there isn't anyone one locally (even though I see atleast one Banshee per day around here) that wants a free taillight cover. SImply amazing. Quote
nunyabinness Posted April 21, 2007 Report Posted April 21, 2007 i know what you were saying. i was just giving you a hard time. i mean i like the cover but i think it would look totally out of place on my banshee. it would be the only shiny thing on there. Quote
