Default Lost bolt
I lost the bolt that holds the right saddlebag mounting bracket to the bike. Does anyone have any idea of the size of it? Thanks.

Tried to post the exact page with the correct information but can't do it with my iPad. It's all listed in the Saddlebag section.

Thanks dawg and ultra. Can't seem to find it on there, guess i'll pull other side and get one in morning. Just figured maybe someone knew since this bolt is notorious for coming loose.

the front bracket is held on by a 1/4" NC bolt

( 1/4" = 7/16" head size....SAE bolts are sized by the shaft, the head is always 3/16" larger.
NC means Coarse Thread ...........NF means Fine Thread)

I replaced mine with 'button head" bolts as they can't be turned out from the side by bad guys

you can see the original bolt laying on the canvas, and on the right side of the pic the button head allen.
also the speed nuts and wing bolts I use for my bags
