Fuel Tank front hold-down bolt

I've been looking here, mentioned in a recent post:
Replacement OEM Parts for 2008 Triumph ROCKET III

I cannot find the hex-keyed bold that holds down the tank at the front.
Anyone have the part number or a web site they can find it on?
I've nearly stripped the thing and would like a spare.

Any old M6 bolt will do.

Thanks for the tip.

****, I was looking at that diagram and didn't see it.
A hex head bolt will be easier not to strip out, anyways.

When in doubt, try fastenall.
Chrome, stainless, anodized, etc.
Expensive but easy and fast.

If you go onto Bike Bandit under accessories (OEM) with your bike year and style you can get the exact replacement; But I simply use a 6mm/1" I believe that is the correct size, cost around $3.00 @ bike bandit. "Be Safe!
