When I bought my 1977 GL1000, it had mismatched rear signals. I decided to get some original matching ones, but still needed the original bolts to attach them to the bike. I ordered a pair from Crescent Moon Cycles, labelled as '75-'77 GL1000 rear signal mounting bolts. I just got them in today, only to find that they are drastically different than the one original bolt that I had. Below is a photo of the 2 bolts. The one on the left is the original bolt I had, the one on the right is a new bolt. I also have a 1976 CB500, and at one time thought I could use it's mounting bolts, but they are also too large.
does anyone know where I could possibly find the original bolts, in the correct size? This is really pissing me off, as it seems that there may have been 2 different sizes for the same model year, and I can't seem to locate the actual one that I need.
