I've taken off the assemblies that hold the mirrors and clutch and brake levers to remove a little rust that was forming on the bolts. In preparing to reinstall, I realize that the bolts on the left and right side are slightly different. The easiest way to tell which is which is that one side has some writing on the top of the bolts. If someone could take a look at their bike and let me know which is which, I would really appreciate it.

Just to be clear, these are the two allen bolts on either side of the clip-ons that hold the mirror assemblies.

Thanks.

Curefan,
It sure is hard to see that writing, so tiny, but on my Thrux, the two allen bolts on the LEFT side have the writing. Right side is smooth.

Curefan - can't help on the bolts as mine are long gone - but will I see you at the Rumble? JCW

Thanks, Foggy. I appreciate it..

John, I should be there for at least a couple of the events. If you need a place to crash while you're in town, let me know. I have spare bedroom and you're more than welcome.

John - thanks for the offer. We will be staying with friends who just moved to Wake Forest. I think its NE of Raleigh maybe 1/2 hour ride away. We will be arriving Friday afternoon and heading out Monday Morning. I may ride with Scott03Bonnie Friday on the back roads and twisties while Jinna drives the truck up the interstate, depending on weather conditions. JCW
