Anyone know the allen wrench size of the bolts where the passenger peg support frames(or whatever you want to call them) attach under the seat? I know for a fact it is not 8mm. I don't think it is metric at all as a matter of fact. |

Just about every allen bolt is SAE. If I remember right its 5/16 |

3/5' bolts sounds right, but the allen wrench size will be smaller. (Message edited by ducbsa on March 13, 2009) |

I concur with froggy. Passenger peg brackets are 5/16". Not metric. Actually I thought all bolts/nuts on the buells are standard (sae) and not metric. |

There is a few metrics in there somewhere. I can't recall off the top my head, but you find out the hard way when nothing fits! Can we just hurry up and convert everything to metric? Life would be so much easier. |

Metric is easier. 8mm is too big? Whip out the 7mm and try it. 5/6" is too small? Umm let me see, 3/4? No wait, thats bigger because its a smaller number, so 2/4? No thats the same as 1/2, I think thats too small. Screw it, wheres my channel locks? |

......apparently the american way is to conform to every minority/special interest group possible. |
