Does anyone know the exhaust stud size on my 08 xb12?. I ran into salt I guess , and the front 2 are badly rusted, I was thinking grade 8 stainless would be good?

You plan on threading them yourself?

Note that the cylinder head ends are fine thread where the header flange sides are standard thread. I seem to recall that there are corrosion resistant studs that you can purchase, somewhere.

The studs use a 1/2" hex nut, so the stud must be 5/16" diameter.
