| | Posted : 23 Mar 2011 - 00:30 Post title : Rear fender front bolt | | | I removed my Easy Bracket mounted saddlebags today to find that the front bolt on one side of the fender is missing. i suspect when I was fiddling around trying the Easy Bracket on the two forward bolts I must have neglected to replace or tighten one of them. I have five out of six bolts holding the rear fender and I don't travel with a pillion passenger so its not a big deal but i want to replace asap. Does anyone know the size of the bolt and what my chances are finding one in a hardware store,
If not can I order this stuff direct from Triumph or do I have to go through a dealer?
thanks

Was able to find one eventually at Lowes. It has a larger head than the OEM one but it will work fine in the meantime
