it's metric and it's the oem description as is the oem part number
Most Harware Stores won't have any clue
Basically it's a fine thread metric number 5 pan head machine screw
something like this LINK
edit : some ebay listings
You really need to find if the other end is in the fairing or not
or you'll be wasting your time putting any screw in there as
there might not be anything for it to grip !
edit ....... I got fed up looking for the same when I was missing
some and as I said just filled 'em with JB Weld .... drilled a hole
in the JB Weld and used coarse screws (Not too long ) to do a
better job imo.
Guess you could say I just got sick of screwing around with it ! lol

I found one still in the fairing... waltzed it into ace hardware and found it but in a torx style drive, hardened finish (probably rust all to hell but who cares). DONE! honda wants $2.50 a screw. A.H wanted .42 cents a screw.
