Hi Fellow PCXers!
So the person who sold me my bike didn't tighten the aftermarket exhaust on properly, and the header pipe fell off on the freeway somewhere.
So I need to refit the original exhaust, but the bolts are (clearly) missing.
They look like 12mm bolts, but what kind do I need? Stainless? Nylock?
And do I use threadlock compound on them?
Thanks, Noel
what kind of bolts for exhaust header?

Stainless steel bolts… Stop obsessing about it and just tighten them down. If it worries you check them once a month, you’ll give up after a few months

Are they not nuts on the header? Think mine are M6
Re: what kind of bolts for exhaust header?
The originals on mine (2016 PCX 150) are a 7mm chrome-plated tall dome nut with a flange.
Very weird size, struggling to even find 7mm stainless nuts here.
