I took the fake leather saddle bags off my 2001 Valkyrie the other day. I threaded the nuts back in after removing the bags but they aren't pretty.

They are four bolts that also thread into the rear fender (two per side). The most rear bolt goes into the nut cage, but it is 'blowing' the nut cage out, I will be cutting it off and going with a cap-nut and washer.

My question is, due to me losing my bookmarks several days ago, what is:

1. One of the web sites that give parts break-downs of the Valkyrie?
2. The size of the four bolts I am needing, and does it come chromed? Do I need to buy it through a distributor?

Thanks-

Still a Valkyrie newbie, but geting better.

HDL.com has  parts finder fiche, you can find the correct chrome bolts and order them there.

So does Partzilla.

You can also polish the heads on those bolts to improve the aesthetics.

I have ordered chrome bolts/nuts from http://www.chromebolt.com/.  They have good quality products.  I have no association, other than a client.
