A-80-101 Head bolt & cyl. stud kit, 12-point

The 1986 Sportster was a transitional year, and finding the right hardware is key to a successful repair. This Gardner-Westcott kit includes both the head bolts and cylinder studs specifically for 1986 XL Sportster models. The bolts feature a 12-point head design, which is preferred by many mechanics for its superior grip and ability to handle high torque loads without rounding. By replacing both the studs and the bolts at the same time, you ensure that the entire clamping assembly is fresh, reducing the risk of head gasket failure. This kit is a comprehensive solution for anyone performing top-end work on this specific year of the Sporty.
