Default TORX size to remove engine guard on 2014 StreetGlide

Does anyone know the Torx size I need to remove the engine/crash bar on a 2014 Streetglide. I'm replacing it with a chopped engine guard. Any help appreciated!

Where did you buy the chopped engine guard?

A lot of websites like ebay have motorcycle parts but i don't know if they are trustworthy. A friend of mine is helping me with this and showed me this site, i don't know what to do.

Thanks @1HDHC. I just realized the upper mount that bolts to the center of the frame is a different type of screw - any help on this appreciated too. It looks like I'm off to the Depot if I can figure out what kind of bit for the center bolt. Any ideas?

OK - I called my local HD shop. Here are the sizes for the 2014 Street Glide:
For the lower frame bolts- Torx 45
For the middle frame bolt 1/4 in HEX

I highly recommend both tools as sockets so you can use a ratchet/breaker bar to get these darn things loose and tight again.
Happy wrenching guys.

I just double checked mine and while the T45 fits it is loose the T47 fits nice and tight
with no slop ... is it possible the MOCO changed the size from 14 to 16 I guess BUT I HIGHLY doubt it..


if you got them out already great BUT Torx are very easy to strip so don't take a chance also the MOCO generally uses the white lock tight, that crap is a BITCH and a little heat goes a long way to getting them out
