    On most Jap bikes ... "Most" bolts will stick out all the same length .. Install the cover ..Install the bolts .. Make sure there all sticking out the hole the same length...

          There is one that is shorter on the right/bottom. It is the one that actually goes into the clutch cavity and can rub on the basket if too long. it has a gasket/washer on it.

            I check the parts fiches. They list the # of bolts and the size of the bolt corresponding to the location.

            PO had one bolt installed incorrectly and it was too long and was gouging into the outside of the clutch basket.
