5th Gen Windshield bolt

Hey there,

Does anyone know the exact size needed for the windshield attachment bolts? Specifically the two that go on under the mirrors that sandwich the windshield between the frame and the front fairing on either side.

 

BOLT, FLANGE, 6X18
957010601808
No 20 on attached parts fiche ??

 

Thank you! It looks like it's #15.. #20 is to attach the mirrors from what I can see.

 

#15 is a 5mm well nut.
NUT, COWL SETTING, 5MM

Editing my post, something's up with this parts fiche. I literally had my hands on all this hardware about an hour ago doing some work. I thought it was 93891-05010-07, but that's a short JIS fastener that secures down the instrument cluster panel. I'm going to go pull a mirror of a second VFR to check something...

 

I think somebody at Honda goofed on this one. I don't think that windshield fastener is on that parts fiche.

It's a 5x20 (5mm-0.80 thread x 20 mm long) JIS screw.



It's the one on the left in this photo. These screws are all used in that upper cowl area:


It's the same length and thread pitch as the numerous shiny pan screws used to hold down the fairings (90103-MBG-000)


The recess in the fairing is deep enough, in a pinch I think you could use extra fairing bolts (90103-MBG-000) in its place if you have some laying around.

 

Interesting

Just taken mirror off.

M5 x 20mm with a JIS head.


Not clear from Fiche.

 

Agree it is missing from Fiche - most un Honda.

 

It's not limited to the fiche you posted. I reference parts fiches for US model VFRs when parts shopping. The item numbering is a bit different than the UK drawing, but the part numbers are the same when you cross reference them. The US fiche doesn't correctly identify the screw either. The only 5X20 screw on the upper cowl parts fiche is 90103-MBG-000, the shiny fairing bolt.
