  • Gas Tank Hold down Bolt

    I lost this bolt. What is the size of this bolt? I want to replace it, so my seat is not the only thing holding down the gas tank.

      You need that?
      Naah... I was riding without one np... I added it later so the bike is "complete".

            I usually have mine installed, forgot to put it back in last time I had the tank off a week ago. The reason I like using it is what if the bike gets layed down? I don't want a gas tank flying around and spilling gas everywhere when its hoses disconnect

              Yeah, but your gas tank doesn't damage/burn the bike even more
