Question Banjo bolt size????
What banjo bolt size do I need for the front caliper and front master cylinder on a 2012 Sportster 72? My brake line has the proper connections but they did not include the bolts. So I need to purchase new bolts in chrome to match brake line. Is the caliper 12mm and the master cylinder 10mm.....please let me know, thanks.

Probably both 10mm try calling the dealership and ask them. The dealership I always used was helpful.

Single front disk brake 04-13 Sportsters use part # 41736-04 banjo bolt (10mm) for the front/rear brake calipers and the front/rear brake master cylinders.

Right, also refer to J&M Cycles catalog. But 10MM sounds correct.
