Does anyone have the part number to the Scout Bobber/Rogue ignition cover bolt? Mine snapped off today. When you look up the ignition cover it does not show it with bolts.

Probably a regular metric allen.I've had good luck getting these at Lowes or Home Depot.Take 1 for comparing length and proper thread pitch.

I found it thanks. I posted on my thread in case anyone else is looking.

Probably a few pennys at the hardware store.

If I ever have a problem with a bolt snapping off, I use Never-seize on the new one..it will always come loose the next time I remove the new bolt.

Ya, I'm a big fan of anti-sieze. Just about everything I take apart, gets anti-sieze going back together. Especially on the Scout with all the steel bolts going into aluminum. I use the copper stuff.

Yeah so do I. These were the torqued down ones for the factory. Weird thing is they were a lot tighter on the ignition cover than the thermostat cover.

I replaced all mine for black Titanium from Pro Bolt. They didn't do a kit for the Scout so I delved into the Indian part listings, made a list and went shopping. Not cheap but the standard zinc coated steel bolts will rot and look tatty very quickly. Below is a list of what you would need. Not on the list are the rotor bolts and rear close-out panel bolts, I bought them later. I also ended up using the cup washers and caps I had bought previously just for aesthetics but be warned the dealerships hate them if they have to work on your bike. 🤣

That bolt was cross threaded to hell. Hope that wasn’t Indian that put that in lol

It definitely was Indian factory or dealership that put it in. I bought it brand new special order and have never touched it.

Yep, it sure looks like it. I would run an M6x1.0 tap down the bolt hole to clean up the threads, before I installed the new bolt.

Use a thread chaser,not a tap.You don't want to possibly cut new threads and really mess up the hole.

Yeah, it’s a better alternative, but use something to chase the thread.
