3/8-16. Check length when you take out the original ones. I used stainless steel bolts. I ran a thread die onto them and ground a taper on the end for ease of alignment when reinstalling the bolts after a cleaning (etc). The die helps keep the threads straight. I never have trouble getting them out and back in.

I found this one at Grainger but the longest they seem to sell is 1.5 inches. I think the one OldMike posted above is 2 inches. I don't have my bike handy but I think the OEM bolts are 2.5"
Are we on to something here? I would love a true quick release for the saddlebags. i suspect hand tightening would result in less cross threading which I know a few of us have experienced
