Anybody know about availability/part numbers for the spacers that you screw into to connect the "ham-can" cover to the backing plate on a Buell Race Intake (the one with the 3" thick K&N filter element)? If not, any ideas about sources other than H-D?

Thanks,

If you just want to move the can out,you can go to any hardware store and get 1/4"X20 couplers or longer bolts. Am I miss reading your post?.....Later Charlie

Thanks for the reply, Charlie.
I guess its the "couplers" that I want. I assume those are the hexagonal threaded cylinders that are bolted to the backplate and into which the cover is bolted from the front? I don't think it would be as stable if I just got longer bolts, though.
Thanks,

Jay,
Those are called standoffs. They are available from McMaster-Carr here's a link:

www.mcmaster.com

Look in the fastening and sealing section-spacers and standoffs
