This bolt has a large flange(.780)and a 1/2 12 point head. ARP 300 grade 8 stainless bolts, studs, and nuts are virtually impervious to rust and corrosion. Rated at 170,000 psi makes these stronger than regular grade 8 fasteners. These are maintenance free fasteners and come with a polished finish.

Ha-ha, sorry to disappoint! Maybe once I get my Thunderbolt back together I'll see if I can find a model! I'll post an installed picture tomorrow.... Edit, I don't think this picture has surfaced in awhile. If I recall her name is Trish and that is her bike. Unfortunately I don't think she has humg out here in a long time... Do you forgive me now?

Looks like a brake line bolt. Love those curves in black. The bike is nice too. |

Ow ow my eyes hurt ! The SHINE ! OK I change my vote to pulley bolt. But they sure don't look like the ones I have in a bag labeled BUELL. |

this morning my bike had no forks, triple trees, rear shock or rear tire. Since then I have replaced the head races and reassembled everything else. The forks have been entirely rebuilt with 0.90 kg springs and gold valves shimmed for me. I also added the upgraded brake rotor, new front M3 Sportec, new wheel and head bearings. On the rear I mounted a Penske with a 450 lb spring. I also purchased a rear sprocket and had it machined out as seen, but I stripped the powder coat and polished it myself. Pictures and more importantly - riding tomorrow!
