Question about Bolt Length after removing highway pegs

[Phil Jones]

I've recently removed the MCL Highway Pegs from my 2014 FJR. The 3 bolts (per side) that were removed are 2.5" long, too long to be put back into the bike. Does someone know the proper length I need for new replacement bolts? Thanks in advance.

Update: I called my local Yamaha Dealer and got it sorted out. They were very helpful.

Can't you just subtract the thickness of the MCL plate from your measurement? That or remove another screw from the housing and measure it? It looks like you didn't have stainless screws for the MCL plates.

Appreciate it. Those bolts came from MCL with the highway pegs. Looks like the standard length is 1.25"

1 1/4”? Maybe 2 1/4”…..or since it’s a Japanese bike, 45 millimeters.

That's quite a big difference. Guessing can only screw up the OP.

If memory serves me right aren't there different length bolts from side to side?

OP originally posted the 1 1/4” figure….not me. The Motorcycle Larry bolt was over 2” so the bolt OP is looking for isn’t 3/4” shorter. My question/answer wasn’t a guess but a reasonable answer.

My bad. I read your answer (misinterpreted) as it's either a 1 and 1/4 or a 2 and 1/4 was stock. That's what I meant by that's quite a difference.
