Just got my bracket for the windjammer. Can someone tell me what size bolts I need to mount it to the bike. I have the bolts to mount the fairing to the bracket but not the bracket to the bike.

IIRC they are 12mm, but they could be 10mm. The easy way is ride the bike down to a local ACE hardware, and go through the metric bins. If no one else speaks up, I'll have an answer tonight.

I agree with DiverRay. Ride down to your local Ace. That way when you need more then just a couple of bolts ( like clamps ) your already there.S.R.Czekus

Take the bike with you and some wrenches. I think the wrench size for the bolts I used was 17mm (?) or 15mm (?). The length is also critical because of the limited depth in the frame tube.
That way, you can take them in and exchange them if they are wrong.

Okay the bole to mount the bracket to the bike are 10mm x 1.25 x 20mm long. The length allows for a lock washer to be installed and possibly a flat washer as well.80 XS1100LGComment
