On Honda fasteners….especially the little plastic push pins that secure the fairing, I can offer the following g information.
There are two companies that build both motorcycles and cars: BMW and Honda. The interesting thing is that they share parts and part numbers across their entire line of vehicles, especially on things like fasteners, seals, bearings, etc. So, instead of going into your bike dealer and asking for a plastic push-pin for a 2007 ST1300 fairing, you can go to your Honda car dealer and ask for parts number xxx-YYYYY-PP.
The key thing is to get that OEM part number and if possible, a listing of what vehicles have used it over the years. In that vein, note that standard mechanical parts like fasteners, bearings, seals etc. are standard commodity parts and they’re not made by Honda (or BMW for that matter) and so you will often find that the same seal or fastener has been used on a huge array of vehicles over literally 40-50 years and it may even be a current part on a vehicle built in 2026.
Again, the key thing is to get that OEM part number - and the easy way to get it is to go to
Partzilla.com
They have parts schematic drawings (they’re called “fiches”) and lists of applications for a given part for virtually all motorcycles going back decades. All you do is copy down the OEM part number complete with any dots or dashes and then either put that text string into your google search box or call your local car dealer and ask for that part number.
Don’t tell them it’s for an old bike - they’ll usually blurt out that, “
we do not stock bike parts” or “
we don’t stock older than 10 years”. Just tell them you want five of this specific part number.
When I first bought my 2007 ST1300, a whole bunch of those plastic pushpins were missing from the fairing - and the bike dealer wanted $8-9.00
each for them. I got the part number and the car dealer next door sold me a package of 10 pins for around $7.50.
The key is having the correct OEM part number.
