How anyone acquires so many is probably a good story too I bet. If one of your spares will fit I will work something out with you!
I also have another VGT Luxe on a bike so I checked that bolt and took some measurements, so here are photos showing overall length, shoulder length, and diameter. Rounded they would be 22mm length, 10mm shoulder, and 11mm diameter. The bolt I measured was black, from my 76 Raleigh Super Course, hoping to find a chromed bolt.
If you happen to have three thin washers and a mounting bolt that would help?
Thanks a lot for looking, we will see what turns up. Ozzie in Dallas
Yup. Here you go: bolt, two washers, and a nut. PM me your address and I'll drop it in the mail.
