Need the dimensions of the OEM windshield bolts

[mikesth]

OK, got a HD windshield bag only because it was better quality than anything else I could find, did not have the HD stamp and did have a metal brace to attach on the back.

All I need now is two longer allen head button top bolts so I can attach it to the support strut behind the Vulcan emblem. Local MC shop ordered them for me in 30mm and 40mm and the head was the wrong size so I returned them.

Has anyone replaced their stock bolts with longer bolts for a windshield bag and can provide the size, pitch, source?

Thanks in advance.

They should be 8mmx125

I took the 2 longer bolts out of the windshield where the metal is double thickness and traded them with the 2 center (single thickness) bolts. The shorter bolts still fit OK. Been that way for 1.5 years...no problem

(slapping forehead) Doh! - Thanks, worked like a champ. I must be getting older, I usually pick up on those things - bag mounted right up
