Is This The Cutest Thing You Can Put On Your Motorcycle? Yes, Yes It Is

Anodized aluminum fasteners are a great way to add a pop of color to your motorcycle, powersports vehicle, or even your car or truck (if you want). As long as they're the correct measurements and strength to fit your application, they can be a cool little detail to spice up your ride without a whole lot of effort. Maybe you've already done this before, or you know someone who has. I certainly have; I have some sweet little red ones holding the carbon fiber flyscreen in place on my Hawk, because the bike is red and the carbon fiber is clear-coated black. They look pretty good, I think!

But these new fasteners from Japanese aftermarket parts specialist Kijima are a whole new dimension of adorable, particularly if you're a cat person. That's Kijima with a 'Ki,' not 'Kojima,' although apparently Hideo Kojima is also very much a cat person, you may be thrilled to learn.

Kijima has dubbed them "Nyanba Bolts," and they come in a nice, standard M6 x 15 size, meant specifically for your license plate, and not intended for any load-bearing use. They come in single packs of whichever color you choose (there are multiple options, as you can see), and they come with the anodized cat-head aluminum bolt in your favorite color, as well as all the hardware you need to use them on your license plate. For the record, that's the bolt, a nut, a flat washer, and a spring washer.
