Default 05 F4i...bolts coming loose?

Hey guys..just bought a used 05 F4i...sold my zx-10 as I wanted a more comfy ride and a better handling bike.Anyway...I got new tires on her today and on the way home I noticed the two bolts that hold like the black inner fairings were gone...so they were kinda flapping around..is this a common problem?

The 2 phillips head screws facing forward in the front, or the 2 plastic push pins at the top on the sides?? Either way... I've never had mine come loose or ever heard of it happening before. It's possible the well nut wasn't in all the way or something when it was tightened down

Hmmm that's odd.... not sure what would cause that unless the well nuts are broken. Might want to just grab 2 new well nuts, put it back together and make sure they're in good and tight

Yeah, any oem retailer will have them. Just make sure they're in tight.
