The number on the head of the bolt is it’s tensile strength, they are used on all Japanese bikes over the period, the “7’s†are used in places where security is important ( bit of overkill on the clutch perch) The “4’s†are also a common sight on Japanese bikes. Anyway, Back to the plot – the “7’s†requested are in a chrome finish, and unfortunately they often come with a captivated flat washer which makes them even rarer – and just to cap it all there are 4 different styles of font on the “7†figure throughout the 1970’s 2- what year "7's" are you after ?

Graham I've got two no.7 bolts with the captivated washers they are 25mm and a no. 4 bolt with captivated washer which is 30mm, they will need a rechrome. Your welcome to them if you want, if any use to you PM your address and I'll post them straight off to you.
Couldn't tell you which font they are though.

Long as it's not 'Baskerville Old Face' bold - you should be OK

My tatty winter hack GS650 is covered in no 7 bolts
maybe the bolts are worth more than the bike
