Case Guards: Still confused about the long bolt
Can someone post a picture of where the long bolt I got with my case guard is supposed to go? I ride a 1978 GS 750.Tags: None

Long bolt goes in front of the engine. It replaces the stock long bolt that will be too short when you install the guards.Ed
To measure is to know.

Post a photo of your guards - I didn't get a long bolt just a shorter nut for the front top mount.Originally posted by beardedmonkey View PostCan someone post a picture of where the long bolt I got with my case guard is supposed to go?

Here they are... looks like the slotted hole goes on the bottom beneath the case and the top one bolts straight to the frame. Is the idea that when I remove one of these from the frame what I'll find is not two short bolts on either side, but instead one long one that goes all the way through?Originally posted by allojohn View PostPost a photo of your guards - I didn't get a long bolt just a shorter nut for the front top mount.
