Hello!

I hope everyone is well and enjoying rides in the warm weather.

I bought some Rok Straps which I plan to use them on the back of the bike to tie a backpack for long trips.

I was wondering if anyone knows the exact size of Torx bolt found on the back of the Street 750 (pictures) as I need to buy a screwdriver to unscrew these and secure the straps but I am not sure of the exact size of the bolt.

Thank you!

I needed to remove one of those things when I bought my car used.
I bought a cheap set of them at the local hardware. It worked.

I did a search for "rear fender torx" and ran into the thread Fender Bolt Tool. In there we seem to have determined several things:
1) The 2015 bikes used an Allen wrench, possibly 6mm size.
2) A couple of us were fairly certain it's a T-45 Torx from 2016 on.
3) One member on another thread insisted it's a T-50 Torx.

My suggestion is to get an inexpensive set of Torx sockets with both just to be safe.

That's great.
Thanks a lot for this!

All the best!!

I remember that thread, especially how difficult some of the guys found removing the bolt.

Yea, in that thread I also say that it's a T-50 based on another thread. I didn't link to @hillyeja making a post to that fact in luggage Rack help and probably should have. Since @skeive and I both initially thought it to be a T-45 I probably should have stuck with my original statement.

Thanks everyone for the responses and information!
Looks like it's a T50 bolt on my bike which is from 2017. I managed to borrow a tool and was able to attach the straps
