Hi everyone I am a fairly new member. I have removed all head bolts except the middle front, I intend replacing the head gasket which has sprung a leak.

This last bolt requires a slim socket and I wondered if anyone could tell me the bolt size and also where I could purchase a slim type socket to fit.

My bike is a 99 600cc 1960.

Any help would be much appreciated

Regards

The boltis 5/16 whitworth, have a look at Melco tools on the web you will find they do a 1/4 x 5/16 box spanner 4" long it will cost you all of £2.21 the code number for the spanner is MELTW7 this will fit.
