If U don't know how to measure or check a bolt size.


Just go to Ur HD or Indy dealer and ask for a New BOLT..

I don't know of any fine threads used in the bolts.

So with out a manual and I've looked on-line for U and can't find it,
So by looking U should get close, so U might have to get 3 or 4 diff bolts sizes and see which one it is. then take back what U don't need.
I have bolt storage cabinet that has hundreds of bolts of all diff sizes, that way I can just pick some out to see which one's needed.

If it goes into Ur heads then take something to put in the hole to see how deep it is. that way U don't get a bolt to long.

Ur mount is different from mine so I can't just say.

I found this for a 2000 FB, but the site doesn't show one for the 2001.
