Default Quick Question

Anyone know what size allen wrench the handlebar clamp bolts on a '10 Ultra are?

I can't remember and want to make a short tool before changing the bars on a friend's this Saturday.

Plus I'm too lazy to take mine apart and find out

TIA!

You did get the 1/4 inch allen didn't you? I first posted 5/16 by mistake. It is 1/4 inch allen. I just recently did my RK and my wifes 2010 SG Trike. Not a hard job at all.. The biggest problem I had was getting to the two front bolts that holds the radio. Good luck!

I have done the job several times and even had 2 shorty allen (L and socket) I made to make the job easier, but I loaned them to a friend who loaned them to a friend and guess what.......no more special tools!

So I go to make new tools and my old fart brain goes, 1/4 or 5/16.......DOH! So I turn and look at my bike then decide, Hell No; I'll post this question on the forum before I take mine apart...

Thanks to all!
