Default Missing bolt

Can you tell me the size of this bolt? I just discovered today that is missing . I suppose that it is related to the rigidity of the engine assembly .

I was missing that bolt on my 06 FLHTCI when it was a year old. Actually I was missing the bolt on the other side also. It holds the plate that the front motor mount goes into. I took it to the dealer and they replaced them with no explanation of why they were missing. They also tried to charge me for the bolts and labor. I had to remind them the bike was only a year old. The mechanic told me on the side that he thought the bolts were over torqued at the factory and they probably broke when I hit a pot hole. Sorry I don't know what size they are. Check to make sure the bolt on the other side is still there.....

Here in Europe is hard to find SAE bolts. We use metric so I have to search it thoroughly.

I finally found the bolt 3/8 x 1.25'' and replaced it. Now everything is fine. Thanks for the input! Have a great day!

nice, make sure that new bolt is grade 5 or grade 8 for hardness or it may snap.
