bolt size

I need to remove the torx bolts that are holding the saddle bag rail, rear "bumper" on my 04 EGlide Standard. I tried the T27, didn't fit.... called the HD shop and they thought T40....I am just trying to confirm that this is the size before I buy one. (I have a service manual on order, but they have not called to tell me it is in yet....) Thanks!

hey af nurse........if the bolts are the same as my 06 glide....i will have that info in the morning....not with the bike right this minute.....

My guess is that they are the same..... looks like the same config on the newest of "tour bikes"......just those 4 torks bolts down by the bumper that holds the saddle bags also..... Those are BIG torx!!! my T27 just kinda "slid around in the hole" and couldn't even really strip them out as it wasn't catching anything!!! Thanks for the help!

my electra glide uses 40 also......sorry for being late....

Thanks guys! I'll get one of those today then! I'll try to get a pic of the project that I am working on and post it....... i am building a flag mount for my bike....done with the iron, now need to bolt it up!!!

i installed my own music system and fabed an antenna mount, using those bolts. i put a $10 dollar 12inch rubber antenna from wally world. works great, and i was also thinking of a flag mount on the other side.....cant wait for the pics!!!!!
