Mystery Bolt

Hey all,

Backed out of my garage to go to church this morning and take a ride afterwards.

When I got home, this bolt was in the driveway where I would have been with the bike.

Metal and patina match, but the head and thread don't.

Ant help as to where this bolt came from is appreciated.

 

What bike you riding? Might help to narrow it down some........

 

Fifth generation/1999.

 

I can't think of where..... that's a screw that goes into plastic judging by the threads. Airbox has a bunch but they are 20mm long and I don't think have the cross-head. Try rear cowl, two there 16mm long on the underside. That's about it...

 

Givi part?

 

That's a good idea, but I have no Givi kit on the bike.

 

Thanks for all your help! I'm going to look at the cowl after school today.

Cheers!

 

Ok, I think I figured it out.

A while back I acquired a pool table, one of those bar-type ones. I think the bolt came from it as,

A) there are other cross-thread bolts used in the assembly

B) Mystery Bolt fits perfectly in each of four holes.

C) Mystery Bolt is a perfect fit for the indents made on the wood around the hole.
