Default socket for brake pad pins?
Time to change the pads on my 2003 Dyna SG, but don't have a socket for the two pins that hold the pads in place. Looks like an itty-bitty 12 pointer and all mine that small are 6 points.

Anybody know what size they are so I can buy a socket? Thanks!

Yeah, that's what it looks like to me. Probably just buy a kit given the price of a single socket. Just hope it's not one of those rare metrics on a Harley.

I believe a 6mm 12 point will work.
A 1/4” 12 point shouldn’t cost $10 at Lowe’s or Home Cheapo.

I use a small 1/4-12 point box wrench since that small size is hard to mind in a 12 point 1/4 drive socket.
