Default Riser Bolt size

I have an 06 Dyna Super Glide and I want to replace the stock riser with one from J&P http://www.jpcycles.com/catalog/2007...alog/0848.html(Left Column, middle, Offset Handlebar Risers). I dont know if they will work, but I want to try it. My question is will my stock bolts fit those?? It says they are 1/2"-13 threads. They look to be as tall as my stock ones. Anyone know the size/thread pitch and length on the stock ones?? I have the service manual and I cant find anything. I havent called my local dealer, I have very little faith in their parts dept. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

1/2"-13 is coarse thread. If you unscrew one of your stock riser bolts, you'll be able to see if it's coarse or fine thread.

Worst case, if your stock bolts are 1/2"-20 (fine thread), just take your stock bolts to a hardware store and pick up the same length in coarse thread...

I also posted this in the Dyna section. A couple guys there said they were 1/2"-13. Thanks!
