The thing is i am in progress of rebuilding this moto from scratch.
I know it probably sounds cheesy but i want it to look nice so i want to order some anodized red bolts. The problem is in many many links like you posted you can buy the kit but the measurements are not there  |

According to Easy-X's cmsnl.com link the side fairing fittings include 9 flange bolts of 6mm diameter, and when you Google that part number you can find a little more info, e.g. https://www.partzilla.com/product/honda/90111-187-000
However, you can see it has a shoulder under the flange. I've shopped with the likes of Westfield Fasteners but you'll be lucky to match that exact specification in this case, and then you want it anodised red (alternatively paint the head?), and that's not the only bolt type you need. You'd be better off going for the Pro-bolt workaround in red for £20 (excluding seat bolts).
Get it running first. |

Forget the bolts, buy decent replacements if you need them otherwise clean up the ones that are there. |
Anodising is good for something static like a panel but you'll be screwing them in... with steel tools Anodising isn't a bullet proof coating!
<addendum> I had an anodised mobile phone holder on the old Keeyway. Originally it was black. A mere few months had it discolour but it actually went a really cool-looking dark bronze. Red doesn't weather to a cool colour. ____________________ Royal Enfield Continental GT 535, Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |
