"Not" Gonna Crash Bar bolt size...? 1100 California Tonti.

I want to order a Not gonna crash bar for the V11 Jackal but I do not see the bolts on MGCycles' site...

Anyone here happen to know the size of the Allens that are the Lower/Front frame connection where the guards attach...?  Diameter/thread and length...

Thanks,
Rob

Book says 12mm x  1.25 pitch no length

Great, thanks.  I can measure the required length, the thread is the big issue.

Thanks Steve,

Do the bars also require a spacer or distance piece at the lower mounting point...? 

Thanks,

No spacer needed but the bolt goes into a hex nut on the back side of the frame rail.

Right, I know about the nut and star washer, I was thinking there is a collar or spacer for some reason... 

Thanks Terry...

I think you are right.

I went to the bike at lunch to eyeball the screw length. My 'poorly calibrated' eyes suggested the screw length is 50mm and there are what appear to be bushings between the crash bar and the frame legs.

Well thanks...  50MM does ring a bell.

Appreciate that.
