Thanks for the responses guys.....I went over the whole bike and couldn't find anything. Checked the back of the seat and the bolt is still there. Same with the shift pegs and brake pedal. I really didn't expect anyone to be able to tell where it came from from the picture. I just thought it was kind of funny. The only other thing I can think of is my last bike (03 Yami Roadstar) the windshield bolts fell out on the right side. Maybe one dropped out of the left side (since the right side were all loctited up) But I traded it in back in Jan for the Ultra and it looks too clean to have been laying outside since then. But then again what do I know since I have zero mechanical ability.

Was in the 70's today so I went for a nice long (260 miles) ride today. When I got home, I was putting the bike in the shed and I saw something shiny on the ground. So I went to pick it up and lo and behold it was a nice shiny hex bolt that came from my nice shiny new Harley. Now I have to find where it came from and how many more are scattered over 260 miles of MD WV and VA. I've attached a photo in case anyone can guess where it might have come from

Can't tell the size from the pic...
Check to see if it is a screw for holding your
front brake disc rotor on the wheel..

bolt
Hard to tell in a picture without any reference. Do like the CSI's do when taking pictures. Put a ruler next to the object! Or you could have just measured the thread diameter and told us that.
The screw appears to be a button head cap screw, is it a Torx head, allen head, or Phillips?
