Scout 2020 bolt sizes for clutch and brake

jmcgints · Jul 2, 2022

Hey, I am hoping someone on here can help. I need to replace the 2 bolts that hold the clutch perch to the handlebars and the same on the brake side (my torx bit seemed to destroy them when loosening to adjust the levers). Being based in the UK this isn't a 'pop to the dealer' part and could take weeks. But I assume these bolts are a standard metric size bolt that I can source from elsewhere.

Can anyone tell me what the correct bolt size is?

Thanks in advance.

They should be stock metric size, I am thinking M6x.1mm. Take one with you to the hardware store, and get Allen head instead of torx. You can match thread size by holding the two bolts, old and new next to each other, head to tail, and see if the threads mesh.

I believe they are M6x1.0x20. Indian stopped showing the bolt in their parts manual, only referencing a part number for the entire rear perch assembly with 2 bolts included.

You most likely destroyed your existing bolts because they were in fact 5mm hex heads and not Torx.

Does anyone know where to get the clutch and brake lever socket bolt covers? Indian will not sell them separately.

Standard allen/hex head bolt covers should do the job. Assuming a 6mm bolt with 5mm head, as above, see for example: Amazon.com

If they came in an Indian-branded bag I suspect they would be around $20 each.
