Breather bolts
Hi all, had to butcher one of the breather bolts to get it out of the head, does anyone know where i can find one without paying extortionate prices that HD want. Cheers

Seriously, did you even bother to call the dealer and find out how much the hardware costs?
M8 Breather Bolts are $4.28 from the dealer.
Even if you find a free one you only save $4.28

Those are the kind of answers you get when you don`t tell us where you are or what you are working on.

There are several aftermarket companies that offer Harley Breather bolts, but in the US they are usually more expensive than the HD bolts at a dealer...
Wouldn't they be even more expensive across the pond?
PS- what year/model bike?
Do you need the nipple-hex heads, hex heads, or button head breather bolts?

I mailed some carburetor parts to one of our members in the UK by first class mail not long ago, only cost a couple bucks in postage. Maybe someone here can step up and mail you one from the US
