I was in the process of changing my head gasket on my shadow 500 and one of the head bolts got bent. I can't find just the head bolt on ebay or any parts website. It seems straightforward to change, but before I buy a case half on ebay just to get the bolt I figured I'd ask if anyone had changed one out before, just to ease my mind.

Thanks for the link Ramie, it's an 86. I've looked through a couple of the misc. Nuts and bolts listings like that one by zooming in on the pictures nd none of them seem to have the 10x120 bolt that goes from the case to the top of the head. They're pretty long and there would be 8 or 10 total so I think they would be easy to spot. I wouldn't mind buying the case since I could probably get it for 30 take the bolts out and repost it. I was just wondering if it's as simple as I think it is or is it a little more involved.
