This is a great question. I have already been to 2 different local dealers for the bolt. Both times they told me, no problem it would work. Both times the bolt they gave me has been too short. So its time for one more trip back and hopefully we can get it right this time.

Thanks. I knew the 1/4x20 threads already, but wasn't sure on the length. I have the chrome and plastic washers but the last bolt was just a little short. I hope to remedy this soon.

Finally made it to the dealer for my bolt. The guy looked it up and said its a 1 1/4" 1/4x20 thread. Of course don't forget to make it chrome to match the tail piece. Ok sounds good. Come to find out this is the only place Harley uses this dimension bolt in chrome with the low profile head, so it is now ordered. I should pick it up on Monday. For just being one little bolt, this has been a pain to get the right one. Oh well, its on its way, and so is riding season.
