 Only the tip of the new bolt is threaded, but I'll check to see that the threads don't overlap the dimensions of the hole it goes through. I know I'm gonna have to take the air cleaner off ... not that big a deal, but the little things seem so much more strenuous when it's 20 degrees and very windy out.
